Sandown Stud’s triple G1 winning stallion Soqrat looks to have a very smart sort to his name in the form of I Salute You.
The latter picked up the second Listed win of his career when he won the Listed Michel Nairac Appreciation Stakes Darley Arabian at Hollywoodbets Greyville on Sunday.

Under Richard Fourie, the Peter Muscutt trained three-year-old came with a strong late rattle to storm away and land Sunday’s 1600m by nearly a length and a half.

Bred by Shadwell Stud, I Salute You has won five of 12 starts, with I Salute You also victorious in this season’s Listed World Sports Betting Sledgehammer.
To date, I Salute You has won or placed in nine of his 12 outings.

The Soqrat colt, who is out of the Var mare Varachino, was a R450 000 buy from the 2023 August Two Year Old Sale.
I Salute You races for Messrs Tony Zackey, E C Abraham, T Herdon, K Nattar & Miss Trinisha Pillay/

Former Equus Champion Soqrat looks to have another smart sort to his name in the form of recent debut winner Deandre’s Dream.
The Sandown Stud resident has three lots on offer at the 2025 August Two Year Old Sale.
