Lot 9 – Virgo’s Babe x One World
Discover the Future Champion: World Champion Colt by One World
In the exclusive world of luxury and excellence, few investments capture the essence of prestige and performance quite like owning a top-tier racehorse. Today, we present a rare opportunity to acquire a colt whose pedigree and potential promise nothing short of greatness.
Introducing Lot 9: World Champion – The One World Colt with Unmatched Promise
One World: A Stallion on the Rise
Equus Champion and Gr.1 Sun Met winner One World has set the racing world ablaze with his extraordinary start at stud. As a son of the legendary South African sire Captain Al, One World has quickly proven his mettle, breaking records and siring an impressive 26 two-year-old winners in his first crop during the 2023-2024 season. This unprecedented achievement positions One World as the Leading First Season Sire and Leading Sire of 2YOs for 2023-2024.
One World’s progeny includes some of the most promising young racehorses:
- One Stripe: Gr.3 City Of Cape Town Cape Of Good Hope Nursery/Gr.3 Winter Nursery winner.
- Lion Rampart: Listed Somerset 1200 winner.
- All Out For Six: Gr.3 Langerman runner-up.
- One More: Debut winner and close fourth in the Gr.1 Gold Medallion at Hollywoodbets Scottsville.
One World’s success in the sales ring has been equally remarkable:
- Two One World colts topped the Cape Yearling Sale at R900,000 each.
- Yearlings by One World fetched up to R1,400,000 at the 2024 National Yearling Sale.
- Leading Sire by Aggregate at the KZN Yearling Sale with yearlings totalling R4,115,000.

Meet World Champion: A Colt Destined for Greatness
Boland Stud is proud to consign the exceptional One World colt, aptly named World Champion (Lot 9), at the August Two Year Old Sale. This colt is not just a racehorse; he is a testament to impeccable breeding and extraordinary potential.
Pedigree Highlights:
- Sire: One World – An Equus Champion and Gr.1 Sun Met winner, One World’s remarkable start at stud sets him apart as a sire of the future.
- Dam: Virgo’s Babe – A classy racemare and granddaughter of the influential sire Kingmambo. Virgo’s Babe won five times up to 1200m, including victories in the Gr.2 SA Fillies Nursery and Listed Swallow Stakes. She earned over R820,000 and placed in numerous black type races, showcasing her class and consistency.
Maternal Lineage:
Virgo’s Babe hails from a lineage steeped in excellence. She is a direct descendant of Drohsky, one of the most influential broodmares in the South African studbook. Drohsky’s legacy includes legendary racehorses such as Sea Cottage and champions like Dancing Danzig, Evening Mist, Senor Santa, and Lenin.
Why World Champion Stands Out:
- Unmatched Pedigree: With One World as his sire and a damline rich in champions, World Champion boasts a pedigree that speaks volumes about his potential.
- Proven Lineage: His close relatives have achieved significant success on both national and international stages, making him a promising prospect for future racing triumphs.
- Exceptional Investment: As a son of a record-breaking sire and from a distinguished broodmare family, World Champion represents a valuable and prestigious investment.
A Golden Opportunity to Secure Excellence
This is more than an opportunity to buy a racehorse; it’s an invitation to be part of a legacy that blends performance, pedigree, and potential. World Champion is poised to be a standout competitor and a future star in the racing world.
