A selection of stallion shares and breeding rights, anchored by 1/50th of a share in top French sire Siyouni (Fr) (Pivotal {GB}) (lot 1), will be offered at the Arqana Online Sale on Nov. 23. Seven lots have been revealed so far, and His Highness The Aga Khan's bay continues to go from strength to strength this season after his son Sottsass (Fr)'s victory in the 2020 G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. In 2021, Siyouni is responsible for St Mark's Basilica (Fr), a dual Classic winner of four Group 1 races this term and five overall. He covered 139 mares at a fee of €140,000, and his yearlings made up to €1,500,000.
There is also a 1/50th share in young Aga Khan Studs' stallion and Group 1 winner Zarak (Fr) (Dubawi {Ire}) (lot 2) available. Already represented by 12 2-year-old winners in his first crop, the son of Arc heroine Zarkava (Ire) (Zamindar) has sired the Group 1-placed duo of Times Square (Fr) and Purplepay (Fr).
