About the horse

His full brother has racked up a string of victories in 2025!

Virunga competed in the top class and demonstrated speed and determination. Her first offspring, her full brother Grand Safari, has raced in the V75 and shown excellent progress in 2025. She has everything it takes!

Virunga was a wonderful talent who made her debut with a victory in August as a two-year-old in 1:17.3 over 2,140 meters! She won the Oaks rematch as a three-year-old and also finished fourth in the Breeders’ Crown that same year. Virunga’s dam trotted 1:11.6 and earned over a million dollars. Grandmother Jungle Queen racked up twelve wins and was also a millionaire! She is also the dam of the millionaire Klipspringer, herself the dam of Pantholops. The female line has also produced the Hambletonian winner Duenna. Virunga’s first offspring, Grand Safari (b. 2021), has three wins and has set a record of 1:13.6am.
