Spotted at Summerveld Training Centre earlier this week, history was made at the Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale in 2018 when Bush Hill Stud sold a flashy grey Judpot colt for their staff, bred by Varsfontein Stud and named One Kiss.

Pinhooked as a weanling for the Bush Hill Stud Grooms Co-Op, he is the first yearling ever sold at the National Sale by Bush Hill Stud grooms.

Bush Hill’s Warwick Render said of the grey at the time of Nationals, “This tall scopy colt will mature into a nice individual.” The colt is a full-brother to a winner, is out of the Caesour mare Akississtillakiss-a full-sister to G2 Gold Bracelet winner Kiss Me Quick.

His second dam is champion Kiss Of Peace, and this is the famed family of outstanding sprinters Harry Hotspur and Rotterdam, as well as top class racemare and producer Kournikova.

Michael Miller bought the colt for R50 000.

Bush Hill advised that they will be looking to purchase another weanling this year of the right calibre for the Bush Hill Stud Grooms Co-Op.
