Varsfontein Stud’s exciting young stallion Master Of My Fate, whose first two-year-olds continue to show tremendous promise, enjoyed a consistent level of success at the recently held Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale.

The regally bred son of Jet Master had eight of his nine lots sell during the select session of the National Sale with Master Of My Fate’s select yearlings grossing R3 395 000 and averaging an impressive R424 375.

Master Of My Fate, the son of champions Jet Master and Promisefrommyheart, had a top lot in the form of Master Of Illusion (Lot 90), a Varsfontein Stud consigned colt who fetched R900 000 when purchased by Nick Jonsson.

Other yearlings by the promising stallion to make good prices during the select session included Sea Scape and Policy Target, bought for R600 000 apiece by prominent bloodstock agents John Freeman and James Bester respectively.

The handsome bay also enjoyed notable success in the second session of trading at the 2018 National Sale, with Master Of My Fate responsible for yearlings fetching up to R450 000 during the session.
