Full Sister to Winner by Champion Sire Vercingetorix – Proven Gr.1 Goldmine Cross

Boland Stud proudly presents this high-quality filly by reigning South African Champion Sire Vercingetorix out of a 100% producing Captain Al mare.

Why Vercingetorix? South Africa’s Dominant Champion Sire

• Sire of 23 black-type winners in the 2024-2025 season alone
• 15 Gr.1 winners to date, including recent Gr.1 SA Classic winner Grand Empire
• Leading Sire of 2YOs and 3YOs in 2024-2025
• Elite performers include Double Grand Slam (Gr.1 Cartier Paddock Stakes & Gr.1 Garden Province Stakes), Mia Moo (Gr.1 South African Fillies Sprint), Vernichey (Gr.1 Allan Robertson Championship), Gladatorian, Pomp And Power and Oriental Charm

The Dam Line – 100% Producer by Champion Broodmare Sire Line Out of Acaciawood, a 4-time winner and Gr.3 placed by Captain Al (multiple Champion Broodmare Sire in South Africa whose daughters have produced numerous Gr.1 winners).

Acaciawood is a 100% producer — 3 runners to race, all winners. She is already the dam of the talented 3-year-old Navaseven (by Vercingetorix), a winner from only 2 starts for trainer Justin Snaith.

This filly is a full sister to Navaseven.

Proven Gr.1 Goldmine Cross – Statistical Safety Net for Buyers This mating replicates the highly successful Vercingetorix × Captain Al nick that has already produced multiple Gr.1 winners, including:

• Double Grand Slam – Gr.1 Cartier Paddock Stakes & Gr.1 Garden Province Stakes
• Mia Moo – Gr.1 South African Fillies Sprint
• Vernichey – Gr.1 Allan Robertson Championship

Multiple Gr.1 Winner – Double Grand Slam

Physical Type A filly with immense quality and athletic presence:

• Correct limbs and strong bone
• Powerful shoulder and deep girth
• Purposeful, athletic walk that screams “ready for the big stage”
• Balanced frame built to race and breed on

Bred by the current Champion Sire on a proven Gr.1-producing nick out of a 100% producer, this filly combines top-class racing potential with excellent residual value as a future broodmare prospect.
