The opening session of the auction will see the first 248 lots go under the hammer, including 40 stakes winners in and out of training. Sweet Lady (Fr) (Lope de Vega {Ire}), winner of this year's G1 Qatar Prix Vermeille, will be offered by trainer Francis-Henri Graffard. A graduate of the 2019 Arqana August Yearling Sale, Sweet Lady–owned by Gemini Stud–is out of the stakes-winning High Heel Sneakers (GB) (Dansili {GB}).

Winner of the 2021 G1 Darley Prix Jean Romanet, the 6-year-old added the G3 Prix Allez France Longines this past May and was a latest admirable fifth in the G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. Prior to her date in the sales ring, she will take part in the G1 Longines Japan Cup, in which she was fifth last term.
