Not Your Average Shuttle Stallion cont. It has been a big year for South African horses, with Soft Falling Rain (SAf) (National Assembly), Shea Shea (National Emblem {SAf}) and The Apache's (Mogok) performances on World Cup Night in Dubai being the highlights. Shea Shea came out of his Dubai World Cup night win rated by Timeform the best sprinter in the world (after the retirement of Black Caviar). After a narrow, and perhaps unlucky, loss in the G1 King=s Stand S. at Royal Ascot, he is now the favorite for Saturday's G1 Darley July Cup at Newmarket. Closer to home, the South African sales results have also seen boosts, with the average of both the two primary sales, the Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 1 and TBA National Sale, rising by 33% and 27%, respectively. Likewise, runners with German pedigrees have been making a mark in Europe this season, with Estimate (Ire) (Monsun {Ger})=s G1 win, Novellist (Ire) (Monsun {Ger})=s win in the G1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud and Maxios (GB) (Monsun {Ger})=s win in the G1 Prix d'Ispahan amongst the standouts. To add to the obvious influence of Monsun, he is also the broodmare sire of Lucky Speed and G1 Prix Ganay winner Pastorius (Ger) (Soldier Hollow {GB}). The loss of Monsun was a great one to European breeders, and the task of finding his successor will be a difficult one. Though it would be difficult and unwise to compare the two, in South Africa Silvano appears to be on the road to leaving the kind of mark on South African breeding that Monsun did for Germany. And on the international stage, it is unlikely we have heard the end of this story. GRADED/GROUP RESULTS UPCOMING MAJOR NORTH AMERICAN STAKES Date Race Track July 13 GIT Man O’ War S.
