Lot 292 – Sommersonne x One World
Own a Future Champion – One World Colt from a Proven Bloodline
Imagine owning a racehorse bred from the finest lineage, a colt poised for greatness, carrying the blood of champions, and possessing the potential to etch his name into racing history.
Boland Stud is offering an exceptional opportunity at the 2025 National Yearling Sale – Lot 292, a colt by the illustrious One World, bred on the same One World/Silvano cross as South Africa’s newest superstar, One Stripe. This pedigree speaks volumes, offering a combination of speed, endurance, and proven Group 1-winning success.
A Sire Destined for Greatness
The racing world has witnessed the meteoric rise of One World, the Gr.1 Sun Met winner and South Africa’s Leading First Season Sire of 2023-2024. With a record-breaking first crop producing an astonishing 48 winners, including 11 black-type performers, One World has quickly proven to be a generational stallion. His standout progeny, One Stripe, has dominated the track with six wins from eight starts, securing victories in both the Gr.1 L’Ormarins King’s Plate and the Gr.1 Hollywoodbets Cape Guineas. With more than R4.16 million in stakes already earned and an international campaign on the horizon, One Stripe has set the benchmark for future One World offspring.
An Elite Pedigree with Residual Value as a Future Sire
This One World colt is already positioned for success, being a half-sibling to Gr.2 winner Just Reckless, who claimed the World Pool With Gold Circle Debutante and Gr.3 Strelitzia Stakes. Such residual value in a pedigree ensures that this filly is not just an investment in racing glory but also in long-term breeding potential.
His dam, Sommersonne, is a winning Silvano mare and a half-sister to multiple Group winner Sommerlied, who captured the prestigious Gr.1 SA Fillies Sprint and Gr.3 Poinsettia Stakes. Further strengthening this blue-blooded lineage, Sommersonne is out of the Pentire mare Sommermarchen, a half-sister to Italian champion Scoubidou.
Gr.2 Winner – Just Reckless foot
This colt is descended from the legendary Schwarzgold, a winner of both the German Derby and German Oaks (1940), whose bloodline continues to produce elite champions. Some of her esteemed descendants include:
- English Derby winner Slip Anchor
- Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe winner Sagace
- US Champion Breeders’ Cup Mile winner Steinlen
- Prix Royal-Oak hero Star Lift
- French classic winners Sparkling Plenty and Stacelita
- Gr.1 Prix du Moulin winner Sauterne
- Japanese sensations Soul Stirring and Stars On Earth
Silvano: A Proven Broodmare Sire
With a legacy as South Africa’s Six-Time Champion Sire, Silvano continues to shape champions as a broodmare sire. His daughters have produced multiple Gr.1 stars, including Bless My Stars, Canadian Summer, Cosmic Highway, Wonderwall, Feather Boa, and Gilded Butterfly. With this colt being bred on the same proven One World/Silvano cross as One Stripe, the potential for racing excellence is undeniable.
