Lot 17 – Bebop x Hawwaam

Own a Champion – The Next Heavy Metal Awaits You

There are racehorses—and then there are legends. Horses like Heavy Metal, the Equus Champion and dual Gr.1 winner who conquered the track, amassed over R3.7 million in stakes, and left giants like Capetown Noir and Pomodoro in his wake. Today, we offer you something extraordinary: a colt destined to carry that same champion’s fire—bred from the same elite bloodline, with the pedigree, power, and promise to become racing’s next superstar.

Equus Champion – Heavy Metal

A Future Champion, Forged from Greatness

This Hawwaam x Bebop colt is more than just a yearling—he’s a living legacy. Sired by Hawwaam (a champion son of Silvano, just like Heavy Metal) and out of Bebop, a winning half-sister to Heavy Metal herself, this colt is genetically primed for dominance. His lineage reads like a roll call of South African racing royalty:

• Gr.1 winners Drum Star & Planetary Music
• Gr.2 KZN Guineas hero Twist Of Fate (R3.3m+ earner)
• Graded stakes winners Dancette, Drum-Dee-Doo, Social Order
• Listed producers and Gr.1 Golden Slipper ancestry

This is a dynasty of winners—a family that doesn’t just compete, but conquers.

Why This Colt? Because Champions Aren’t Born by Chance.

• Sire: Hawwaam – A multiple Gr.1 winner and Silvano’s heir, passing on brilliance, stamina, and that killer instinct.
• Dam: Bebop – A proven producer with Heavy Metal’s own blood coursing through her veins. Her dam, Percussion, is a fountain of black-type talent.
• Pedigree Power – From What A Winter’s broodmare magic (see: Destiny Dancer’s stakes-winning fillies) to Silvano’s Gr.1 prowess, every strand of DNA here screams elite.

Owning a Piece of History

For the discerning collector, the thrill isn’t just in the purchase—it’s in the anticipation. The roar of the crowd as your silks blaze past the post. The glory of raising a Gr.1 trophy. The pride of saying, “I own a champion.” This colt isn’t just a racehorse—he’s a masterpiece in motion, a tangible dream waiting for a visionary like you to bring it to life.

Act Now—Legends Don’t Wait
