Klawervlei Stud’s bang inform resident sire WILLIAM LONGSWORD (Captain Al) looks to have yet another classy sort on his hands in the form of progressive three-year-old LORD WILLIAM.
The latter showed his well being when winning a good race at Hollywoodbets Scottsville on Wednesday afternoon. Making his first start since January, the Glen Kotzen trained LORD WILLIAM powered home, under Ashton Arries, to down hard-knocking older rivals FAST LOVE (Master Of My Fate) and BOWIE (Twice Over) by just over a length and by more than two lengths respectively.
The gelded son of William Longsword could now take his place in several of the upcoming KwaZulu-Natal feature races.
Bred by Maine Chance Farms, Lord William races for Messrs C D Mitchell & J E Mitchell.
The three-year-old had shown promising form in the Cape, where Lord William’s form included a third, to subsequent G1 Cape Guineas winner CHARLES DICKENS (Trippi), in the 2022 Listed TAB Somerset 1200.
