“I think it's a fair price and, at that money, it's makes a lot of sense for the new partner too,” Davison said. “They've now got a significant share in a good, progressive horse who's got plenty of big days ahead of him.

“He's bouncing at the moment! I think the horse will run very well in Ascot and he'll give the new owner a lot of pleasure going forward. He is in great nick, but he's only a baby and there's plenty ahead of him.”

The Jersey is set to take place on Saturday, June 24.

“Selling a 50% share in a Royal Ascot runner a week before the meeting has been a great success, not least going for £75,000,” ThoroughBid CEO James Richardson said. “ThoroughBid has broken new ground with this sale; tailoring an online auction to fit the needs of a part-sale, and positioning on a specific date ahead of it's intended run at Royal Ascot hopefully shows how flexible we can be. It's a new and important string to our bow.”
