Ascot Stud is famed for the quality of broodmares which reside there.
The farm is home to mares hailing from some of the very best thoroughbred families in the world.

Some of the families will be represented at the 2025 KZN Yearling Sale, where Ascot Stud will be offering six yearlings, with resident sires Global View and Heavenly Blue responsible for all six lots.
A few potential standouts include:
Lot 5: Dear Doc c Heavenly Blue – Al Bella
By the same sire as smart performers Truth, Three Rocks and Zinovi, this colt is a half or full brother to four winners. His dam Al Bella is a full-sister to the dam of Listed World Pool With Tabgold Darley Arabian winner Get Impressed and three-parts sister to champion sire Captain Al.
Lot 106: Silva Streaker c Heavenly Blue – Kwacha
Out of a stakes placed daughter of the increasingly successful broodmare sire Tiger Ridge, this colt’s granddam is a half-sister to three graded stakes winners led by multiple G1 winning champion Arabian Lass. Further back, this is also the female line of G1 Cape Racing Presents The Cape Guineas winner Russian Rock and international sensations, Minding, Henry Longfellow and Vaguely Noble.
Lot 143: Hazel f Global View – Peanut Butter
By the same sire as Horse Of The Year Dave The King and the charismatic Global Drummer, this filly is out of a winning half-sister to the stakes placed Gimmethegreenback. From the same family as New Zealand champion Uncle Remus, this filly also hails from the same family as classic winners Mesa and Faraway.
This draft can be found in Blocks D and E at the Suncoast Casino in Durban.
