FIND YOUR OWN ISIVUNGUVUNGU IN NARROW CREEK’S PREMIER DRAFT!
Narrow Creek Stud have bred a truly world-class sprinter in the form of Isivunguvungu. The latter, a likely contender for the G1 Al Quoz Sprint on Dubai World Cup night, was Equus Champion Sprinter of 2022-2023, with Isivunguvungu winning six of 15 starts including both the G1 Computaform Sprint and G1 Mercury Sprint in 2023.
Exported to North America, Isivunguvungu has shown very smart in the US, and last time out finished a close up, and unlucky third, in the Turf Dash Stakes at Tampa Bay Downs.
His breeder will be offering a strong draft at the Premier Yearling Sale, with Narrow Creek’s Premier consignment including yearlings sired by all of Canford Cliffs, Elusive Fort, Erik The Red, Hawwaam, Rafeef and Isivunguvungu’s own sire What A Winter.
This draft also includes a colt by Australian star Microphone, a son of Exceed And Excel who was crowned Australia’s Champion 2YO in 2018-2019.
John Everett picked out two particuarly appealing yearlings in his consignment for the sale.
