Lot 44 – Captive Gold x Soqrat
Seize Greatness – Acquire the Soqrat Colt of Distinction
Prepare to embark on an exhilarating journey into the world of thoroughbred excellence with Boland Stud’s exceptional offering—a Soqrat colt destined to captivate hearts and conquer tracks. As we anticipate the prestigious 2024 KZN Yearling Sale, we extend an exclusive invitation for you to claim a stake in racing royalty. The colt in question emerges from a lineage steeped in triumph and distinction. Sired by Equus Champion Soqrat, this blue-blooded prospect is out of the illustriously bred Soft Falling Rain mare, Captive Gold—a mare who boasts a pedigree adorned with multiple stakes winners.
Captive Gold’s stellar siblings include the esteemed Gr.1 Cape Guineas victor, Elusive Gold, along with Gr.3 winners Rich Strike and Avenue Of Gold, and Listed Stormsvlei Mile queen, Seattle Gold. Notably, Seattle Gold’s Gimmethegreenlight filly, Greenandgold, commanded R2,600,000 at the 2024 National Yearling Sale—an endorsement of the family’s enduring excellence. The maternal lineage traces back to the exceptional Circle Of Gold—a foundation mare whose influence extends to the likes of classic winners and champions. Circle Of Gold’s daughter, Capture The Wind, is the dam of classic victor Call The Wind and third dam of the promising two-year-old Happy Holly. Notably, Circle Of Gold’s half-sister, Enchanted Garden, epitomized greatness as South Africa’s Horse Of The Year and Champion 3YO Filly of 1985, securing victories in prestigious Gr.1 contests like the Sun International, Natal Oaks, and SA Oaks.
Soft Falling Rain, the broodmare sire of our featured colt, was a globe-trotting Equus Champion renowned for his prowess on international stages. A son of National Assembly, Soft Falling Rain left an indelible mark, siring standout performers such as Waterberry Lane, Shangani, Zeus, and World Radar.
