Visigoth, a full-brother to Visionaire’s KZN award nominee Visuality, got off the mark at the Vaal on Tuesday afternoon.
Bred by Rotheson Stud, and from the yard of reigning champion trainer Sean Tarry (who also owns him), Visigoth was all the rage for the 1700m maiden and the colt duly obliged.

Visigoth, who appears to be looking for more ground, stayed on to get up and win by 1.6 lengths, under jockey S’Manga Khumalo.

The 3yo colt, who has won and placed in all three of his racetrack outings, was a R160 000 from the 2016 CTS Johannesburg Ready To Run Sale.

Visigoth and Visuality (who has earned more than R450 000) are out of the Personal Hope mare Personify.

Their sire Visionaire has been enjoying a good patch with his runners of late, and Grand Slam’s G1 winning son has runners nominated for no fewer than four KZN Breeders Awards.
