Lot 123 – Hidden Power x Lancaster Bomber

In the world of horse racing, greatness is a rare and precious gem. Lancaster Bomber’s racing journey was nothing short of remarkable. He secured victory in the Gr.1 Tattersalls Gold Cup, solidifying his status as a true champion. His international presence was felt as he finished runner-up in both the 2016 Gr.1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf and the subsequent year’s Gr.1 Breeders’ Cup Mile. In short, Excelebration, a horse from the same lineage, displayed top-class form at ages two, three, and four, finishing first, second, or third in seven Gr.1 races.

Retired to stud in 2019, Lancaster Bomber quickly made a profound impact in his first season as a sire. In the 2022-2023 season, he was crowned South Africa’s Leading First Season Sire, a testament to the exceptional quality of his progeny. His first crop produced nineteen two-year-old winners, with standouts like Listed WSB Irridescence Stakes winner Beach Bomb, Listed City Of Cape Town Summer Juvenile Stakes queen Rascova, and Gr.1 Gold Medallion third place-getter Guy Gibson.

Gr.1 Winner – Lancaster Bomber

The lineage continues to impress with offspring like multiple graded stakes winning sire Erik The Red, Gr.1 Gold Medallion runner-up and Hong Kong scorer Varallo, and the stakes-placed Scandola. Scandola has already proven herself as a producer of good horses, with her progeny including the 2023 Gr.2 Debutante winner Cala Muretta. Delve deeper, and you’ll find connections to champions such as Queen Elizabeth II Cup winner and former South African Horse Of The Year London News, fellow champion Kings Gambit, and Gr.1 Spring Challenge queen Lady Brompton. The family tree branches out to include other graded stakes winners like American Badger, Captain Splendid, Ecstatic Green, Hack Green, and Superwood.
