There is just no stopping the progeny of freshman sire Johannesburg whose son Marcavelly (2c Johannesburg - Dark Jewel by Majestic Light) became his sire's 10th individual winner when routing a field of maidens over 6 furlongs at Belmont Park on Saturday.

The debutant, under Belmont Stakes winning jockey Fernando Jara, was trapped wide for much of the contest, but quickened away with consummate ease to score by an impressive 7 lengths.

The bay colt, a $210,000 Keeneland September yearling who hails from the family of Breeders' Cup Mile winner Artie Schiller, is owned by Zayat Stables and trained by Hall Of Famer Bill Mott.

Marcavelly had been preceeded on the same afternoon by his sire's 9th winner Johannesburg Cat (2f Johannesburg - High Society by Key of Luck) who struck in a 6 furlong maiden at Hamburg, Germany. The filly showed good early speed and a willing attitude to justify favouritism on her racecourse bow by a neck at the line.

These further winners have propelled Johannesburg to the top of the freshman sires table in the United States in terms of winners. It promises to be a profitable summer for Johannesburg with his exciting progeny Scat Daddy, Evens And Odds, Jo'Burg and last-weeks awesome debut winner Hamoody set to make their mark in stakes races in the coming months.

In 2001, Johannesburg put up one of the most sensational juvenile campaigns in history. In his native Europe he won his first six starts, five of them stakes including three grade ones races in three different countries: the Prix Morny in France, the Middle Park in England and the Phoenix in Ireland. With Europe’s juvenile set successfully conquered, Johannesburg shipped to America to face the best of the North American two year-olds. The results were the same. The son of 1995 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile runner-up Hennessy, won the race his sire narrowly lost and earned Championships honors on a second continent.
