The sales environment is evolving in a hurry and BSA have joined the fray with their rejuvenated Cape Summer Yearling Sale at the gorgeous Val de Vie estate. The Sporting Post went along to take a look.
A magnificent Dynasty colt bred by Varsfontein Stud topped the charts when selling for R1,2 million at the Val De Vie Yearling Sale held at a cooking warm Franschhoek today.
“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” It is a habit Ryk Neethling has clearly acquired. The only difference is that the energy is no longer directed at excellence in the swimming pool, but at the management and development of Val de Vie.
We are delighted to have secured the up-market and horse friendly venue of Val de Vie Estate. It is particularly pleasing that Breeders have conveyed their strong desire to support their own Sale in the Cape and we expect buyers to be equally excited at the opportunity of buying horses at this spectacular venue.
With the loss of the Convention Centre venue, BSA are delighted to have found the exclusive Val de Vie for the Cape Sale.
