Outstanding broodmare Sunday Times, the dam of American superstar filly Newspaperofrecord, is to be offered for sale at the forthcoming Tattersalls December Mares Sale which takes place Nov. 29 – Dec. 2.
The 12-year-old daughter of Holy Roman Emperor is carrying a Lope de Vega own sibling to Newspaperofrecord whose unbeaten 2-year-old career culminated in a breathtaking seven-length romp in the 2018 Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf at Churchill Downs. Purchased at Book 1 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale and trained by Chad Brown, Newspaperofrecord raced in the colors of Seth Klarman's Klaravich Stables and added to her Grade 1 tally with another effortless win over a mile in last year's G1 Just A Game Stakes at Belmont Park.
Quoted after Newspaperofrecord's extraordinary Breeders' Cup performance Chad Brown said; “Today she showed how good she really is and for her to win as easy as she did is remarkable,” while Thoroughbred Daily News columnist Bill Finley wrote that “her performance might well be regarded as one of the best in the history of the series.”
Newspaperofrecord is the third foal out of Sunday Times, herself a top-class race filly who won the G3 Sceptre Stakes at Doncaster for her owner Allan Belshaw as well as finishing second in the G1 Cheveley Park Stakes. Her first foal Classical Times, by Lawman, who was also raced by Belshaw, won the Listed Cecil Frail Stakes at Haydock beating the high-class Group 2 and Group 3 winners Raven's Lady and Different League, before being sold to Juddmonte Farms, and her fourth foal, the winning Gleneagles filly Daily Times, in foal to Lope de Vega, will also be amongst the highlights of the forthcoming December Mares Sale.
Sunday Times' Listed placed Shamardal half-sister Question Times is equally illustrious, having produced six winners to date including 2018 G1 Irish Derby winner Latrobe, the G3 Gladness Stakes winner Diamond Fields and the Listed winner Pink Dogwood who was second to Anapurna in the 2019 Oaks and third in the Irish Oaks.
Both Sunday Times and Daily Times will be offered on behalf of Allan Belshaw from Richard and Sally Aston's Goldford Stud. Commenting on the sale of Sunday Times, Richard Aston said
“Sunday Times is a truly outstanding broodmare with a great future. She was a very smart race filly, she has produced a champion 2-year-old, she has a current classic pedigree which will appeal to breeders from all over the world and she is gorgeous. It is a rare combination and Mr. Belshaw will be racing Newspaperofrecord's yearling own sister and this year's Kingman filly foal which is why he has decided to sell both Sunday Times and Daily Times.”
