Burgarita First To Seven Figures At Arqana, As Godolphin Buys Dual Stakes Winner For 1.7m

The talented and well-related Burgarita (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) (lot 177) was the first seven-figure lot at Arqana on Saturday, making €1.7 million from Anthony Stroud. Bound for the Godolphin fold, the bay filly-in-training was offered by Baroda Stud. A dual listed winner, the half-sister to G3 Prix Allez France heroine Aquamarine (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) was second three times at group level and ran third in the G1 Prix de Diane. Under the second dam is the GI Beverly D. S. and GI Diana S. heroine Angara (GB) (Alzao). She made 95,000gns as a Tattersalls December yearling.

Stroud told the TDN, “We thought she'd be a good candidate for Dubawi (Ire).”

Besides taking the Listed Prix de la Seine and Listed Prix Casimir Delamarre, the Andre Fabre-trained Burgarita also placed in the G1 Prix de Diane, as well as three more group races from just 12 starts. She is a half-sister to G3 Prix Allez France heroin Aquamarine (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), already the dam of stakes winner and multiple group placed Ultramarine (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}). Her dam, the Alzao mare Angelita (Ire), is a sister to two-time Grade I winner Angara (GB) (Alzao). In the extended family are Group 1 winners Arcangues (Sagace {Fr}), Agathe (Manila), Aquarelliste (Fr) (Danehill), and Artiste Royal (Ire) (Danehill).

A winner of the G3 Prix Six Perfections and third in the G1 Prix Marcel Boussac as a juvenile, Oscula added to her black-type laurels this term with victories in the G3 Oak Tree S. and G3 Prix de Lieurey for trainer George Boughey and Nick Bradley Racing. She is rated 107, and hails from the family of G2 Mill Reef S. winner Galeota (Ire) (Mujadil), and fellow group winners Brown Sugar (Ire) (Tamayuz {GB}), Burnt Sugar (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}), Wings Of War (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}), and Charyn (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}).

Rounding out the trio is the Intello 4-year-old Waldbiene, who took the G2 T von Zastrow Stutenpreis and was also runner-up in the G3 Grosser Preis des Gestuts Auenquelle und Torquator Tasso. Rated 100, she will be offered by Ronald Rauscher and is out of the group-placed Waldjagd (GB) (Observatory). Her second dam is group winner Wurftaube (Ger) (Acatenango {Ger), and she is kin to top-level winners Masked Marvel (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}), Walgeist (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) and Wake Forest (Ger) (Sir Percy {GB}).
