The third of his G1 victories having also won
the Sir Rupert Clark Stakes during the Melbourne Spring, Santa Ana Lane looks a
prime contender for a spot in the coveted Everest, later in the year.
A member of Lope De Vega's first Southern Hemisphere crop, Santa Ana Lane joins Vega Magic as a multiple G1 winner for his sire in Australia, with Vega Magic successful in last season's G1 Goodwood along with the G1 Memsie Stakes en route to a runner-up performance in Australia's richest race, The Everest.
On this side of the Tasman, Lope De Vega has made his presence felt in the fillies ranks with stakes winning two-year-olds Spanish Whisper and Rubira successful in the G2 Matamata Breeders' Stakes and Listed Champagne Stakes respectively.
New Zealand breeders have the unique opportunity to tap into the Lope De Vega sire line through Belardo, the only son of Lope De Vega at stud in Australasia.

A dual G1 winner Belardo will return to Haunui Farm in 2018
at a fee of $12,000 + GST with his Northern Hemisphere foals creating quite the
impression.
