Unleash Greatness: Invest in the Rafeef Filly at KZN Yearling Sale

Prepare to elevate your racing stable to unprecedented heights with Boland Stud’s exceptional offering—a distinguished Rafeef filly destined for triumph at the 2024 KZN Yearling Sale. Rafeef, the illustrious Grade One Computaform Sprint victor, has solidified his reputation as a sire of top-class fillies, known not only for their frequent stakes victories but also for their versatility over varying distances. The list of Rafeef’s high-calibre daughters speaks volumes:

  • Frances Ethel, a potential contender in the prestigious Gr.1 Hollywoodbets Durban July, boasting an impressive record of four wins from her first five starts.
  • Mrs Browning, a proven performer with victories in the Gr.2 TAB Camellia Stakes and G3 Joburg Tourism Carry On Alice Stakes.
  • Beating Wings, triumphant in the Gr.2 TAB Igugu Stakes.
  • Shantastic, a force to be reckoned with in the Gr.3 Umzimkhulu Stakes.
  • And more, including Glittering Girl, Juliet Tango, and Troppo Veloce, whose triumphs underscore the exceptional quality of Rafeef’s progeny.

The Rafeef filly offered by Boland Stud at the upcoming sale boasts a pedigree steeped in greatness. Her lineage traces back through Captain Al, Jet Master, and Jallad—champions renowned for their enduring impact on the racing world. Out of the accomplished On Captain’s Side—a four-time winner up to 1250m and third-place finisher in the Listed Laisserfaire Stakes—this filly epitomizes speed and potential. On Captain’s Side, a daughter of the legendary Captain Al, is herself a descendant of the esteemed Gr.3 Final Fling Stakes victor Bit On The Side, sired by the iconic Jet Master. Bit On The Side’s legacy extends to her progeny, including Love Is A Rose, winner of the Gr.3 Final Fling Stakes and a testament to the enduring success of this exceptional bloodline. Captain Al’s legacy as a sire of champion fillies—including the likes of Captain’s Ransom, All Is Secret, Carry On Alice, Celtic Sea, and Cloth Of Cloud—underscores the potential greatness embodied by this Rafeef filly.
