KING DE LAGO is an outstanding son of the Group 1 winning Champion Australian sire ENCOSTA DE LAGO – sire of 815 progeny to race, 535 winners (65.6%), with earnings of $75 million, 58 stakes winners including:

Group One winners PRINCESS COUP, SIRMIONE, SACRED KINGDOM, ALINGHI, MNEMOSYNE, RACING TO WIN, LASHED, MANHATTAN RAIN, NORTHERN METEOR, APERCUS, NEWPORT, SHADOWAYS, DOURO VALLEY, DELAGO BROM, TITANIC JACK etc.

KING DE LAGO is out of the multiple winner Ranch Lady, herself a half sister to DEPOSITION, ACCUSE and DANZIGHILL and the dam of Derby winner VENTURA. Ranch Lady is by RANCHER winner of no less than eight 2YO stakes races including the Blue Diamond, Maribyrnong Plate, Ascot Vale Stakes, Debutant Stakes, Merson Cooper stakes plus two Blue Diamond Preludes.

If you are looking to access the Encosta De Lago bloodline, please take a moment to compare his pedigree with other sons of Encosta. On pedigree he is the clear choice and his unraced status is of little concern when you consider his famous grandsire Fairy King, sire of Encosta de Lago, never laid a hoof on a racetrack yet produced 71 stakes winners.

It’s all in the genes...
