Wednesday double for Vercingetorix

4th November 2021

Fresh off enjoying a notable big race double last Saturday, Maine Chance Farms’ very much inform stallion Vercingetorix was again to the fore when he supplied two more winners at Kenilworth on Wednesday.

The former Equus Champion’s first success on Wednesday came when his three-year-old son Ragnar Lothbrok got off the mark in convincing style.

Placed in each of his first three starts prior to Wednesday, the Piet Botha trained Ragnar Lothbrok got off the mark with a convincing win over 1000m.
Under Aldo Domeyer, the Millstream Farm bred colt pulled off to win Wednesday’s Goals And Gallops Maiden Plate (1000m) by a length and a quarter.

The progressive looking Ragnar Lothbrok is out of the Elusive Quality mare Dijla.

Vercingetorix’s second success on Wednesday came when his Brett Crawford trained daughter Celtic Night defied 60kgs to win the seventh race impressively.
Under an inform Louis Mxothwa, four-year-old Celtic Night pulled well clear in Wednesday’s #ThisIsRacing FM 84 Handicap (1600m) to win by a length and a half.

Bred and owned by Dr Kritzinger, Celtic Night has now won three of her nine starts.

Sire of Saturday’s Listed Golden Loom Handicap winner Alesian Chief and Saturday’s CTS De Grendel Ready To Run Stakes hero Fifty Fiver, Vercingetorix has three lots on offer at the November Two Year Old Sale.
