Vercingetorix. Master Of My Fate. Rafeef. One World. These are just three of the top-class stallions represented in Hopes And Dreams Stud’s Two-Year-Old Sale draft. With two-year-olds hailing from some outstanding families, there is much to like about this consignment! Likely standout two-year-olds here include:
Lot 4: One World – Glory Days (colt):
By the same sire as top-class performers including One Stripe, All Out For Six, and Dreamworld, this colt is out of a stakes placed daughter of Vercingetorix. This colt, whose granddam was sired by Sadler’s Wells, hails from the same family as outstanding performers Generous, Moonlight Cloud, Triptych and Imagine.
Lot 57: Contrary Mary – Master Of My Fate – Princess Thiana (filly):
By the red-hot sire of current champions Golden Palm and Jan Van Goyen, this filly is out of a full-sister to dual Horse Of The Year and eight-time Gr 1 winner Legal Eagle.
Lot 110: One World -Abbey Wood (filly):
Out of a winning daughter of champion sire Vercingetorix, this filly’s granddam is a Gr 3 placed daughter of seven times champion sire Jet Master. This filly traces back directly in female line to Soho Secret, ancestress of stars like Malmoos, Master Of My Fate and Pluck.
Lot 123: Rafeef – Before The Dawn (filly):
By the sire of Thunderstruck and fellow Gr 1 winners Master Archie, Aragosta and William Robertson, this filly is out of a seven-time winning half-sister to Equus champion and sire Thunderstruck, making her a three-parts sister to the Ridgemont based Equus champion. This filly’s granddam is Var sired Gr 2 Post Merchants winner Varikate.
Lot 147: Gallic Flight – Vercingetorix – Flight Zone (filly):
Bred on the same Vercingetorix/Jet Master cross as the likes of African Warrior, Rascallion and Quickstepgal, this half-sister to a four-time winner is out of a six-time winning half-sister to globetrotting champion, and Gr 1 Vodacom Durban July winner, Bold Silvano. The latter, like Vercingetorix, was sired by Silvano.
