Cousin Casey retires to stud
July 21, 2025
|The Mercury
COUSIN CASEY, the smashing and well-performed son of Vercingetorix, has been retired to stud at Mauritzfontein.
-
He arrived at the legendary Kimberley farm on Friday afternoon and has been bouncing around his new paddock like a colt with a fresh set of dreams—head high, ears pricked, and clearly aware that his next chapter has just begun.
Naidoo
Ravi Naidoo, who owns Cousin Casey under his ‘Kalinga’ banner, said that the decision to retire the five-year-old entire was taken after his 2025 HWB Durban July preparation was hampered by an injury.
A late foal, Cousin Casey was a calculated buy at the Bloodstock SA National Yearling Sale in 2021, fetching R375 000. His exploits in becoming the Equus Champion Juvenile in 2021/22, helped trigger the boom prices for his sire at subsequent sales.
