Welcome

KLAWERVLEI STUD is a thoroughbred breeding enterprise conducted from the farm Wagenboomheuwel on the banks of the Breede river east of Bonnievale, a village in the BAR valley. This area has traditionally been associated with the breeding of high quality and sound race horses. These traits are procured predominantly as a result of climatology and soil type.

Klawervlei is conducted through a corporate entity owned by John Koster and a syndicate of businessmen. The stud is managed by John, a seasoned equine stockman hailing from a family that has been engaged in thoroughbred breeding for generations.
