The catalog for the Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up, which will take place Monday, April 12 – Wednesday, April 14, can be viewed online at www.tattersalls.com and will be available from Tattersalls and Tattersalls Representatives from Monday, March 8.
A total of 168 high quality juveniles are catalogued for Europe's premier sale of two-year-olds in training which has produced a remarkable 49 Group and Listed winners in the last five years.
All 168 lots are eligible for the new £250,000 Craven Royal Ascot/Group 1 Bonus which will offer a £125,000 bonus for the first Craven Breeze Up winner of any of the six two-year-old races at Royal Ascot. An additional £125,000 bonus will also be paid to the first Craven Breeze Up winner of any of the 15 European Group 1 races open to two-year-olds, including the all-age Group 1 Nunthorpe Stakes at York and the Group 1 Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp. This is in addition to the lucrative and widely acclaimed £15,000 Craven Breeze Up Bonus, which has rewarded the owners of horses bought from the Craven Breeze Up Sale with more than £250,000 in bonus prize-money since its inception in 2019.
The catalog features 20 2-year-olds out of group or listed winning mares including the Frankel colt out of Group 1 Prix Jean Romanet winner Ribbons, and the Dubawi colt out of the Group 3 winner Stellar Path. Also out of top class racemares are U.S.-bred colts by Arrogate and Union Rags out of the Grade 1 winners Funny Moon and Careless Jewel, respectively.
Additionally there are own or half brothers and sisters to a further 32 group or listed winners cataloged, including two exceptionally well bred sons of Siyouni. Oak Tree Farm consigns a half-brother to the Grade 1 scorer Western Aristocrat, whilst Longways Stables offers a half-brother to the Grade 2 winner and Grade 1 runner-up Mrs Sippy. The catalog also features the Aclaim half-brother to Group 1 Sussex Stakes winner Here Comes When consigned by Ardglas Stables and the half-sister to the Group 2 winner and classic placed Laughing Lashes, by exciting first-season American sire Mastery, coming from Mocklershill.
No less than 42 of the sires represented in the catalog have already produced Classic or Group 1 winners including Acclamation, Camelot, Dark Angel, Dubawi, Exceed and Excal, Frankel, Invincible Spirit, Kingman, Kodiac, Le Havre, Lope de Vega, Mehmas, No Nay Never, Oasis Dream, Pivotal, Sea the Stars, Showcasing, and Siyouni. Leading U.S.-based sires also feature prominently including proven Grade 1 sires American Pharoah, Bernardini, Distorted Humor, Empire Maker, Hard Spun, Kitten's Joy, More Than Ready, Street Boss, Street Sense, and Union Rags.
Equally impressive is the exciting group of first-season sires with their first crop of 2-year-olds with Aclaim, Almanzor, Ardad, Caravaggio, Churchill, Cotai Glory, Ectot, El Kabier, Galileo Gold, Highland Reel, Profitable, Recorder, Ribchester, Time Test, and Ulysses, joined by a strong contingent of U.S.-based contemporaries including Arrogate, Gormley, Mastery, and Practical Joke.
Irish consignors Mocklershill and Aguiar Bloodstock have the equal largest consignments with 12 juveniles cataloged a piece, whilst last year's sale-topping consignor Tally-Ho Stud will bring eight 2-year-olds to the sale. The largest British-based team comes from Malcolm Bastard, who has a team of eight to represent him.
In addition to all lots being eligible for both the new £250,000 Craven Royal Ascot/Group 1 Bonus and the £15,000 Craven Breeze Up Bonus, buyers looking to benefit from additional incentives will be well catered for with nine lots entered in the hugely popular £20,000 Tattersalls October Book 1 Bonus. There are also 12 fillies registered for the Great British Bonus Scheme, 10 2-year-olds eligible for French Owners' Premiums, and one 2-year-old eligible for each of the £150,000 Tattersalls October Auction Sales Stakes and the €300,000 Tattersalls Ireland September Super Auction Sales Race.
Commenting on the Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up catalog, Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony said;
“The combination of the new £250,000 Craven Royal Ascot/Group 1 Bonus and the £15,000 Craven Breeze Up Bonus makes the 2021 Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale a compelling prospect for owners. We are committed to rewarding owners in as many innovative ways as we can and a quality Craven Breeze Up catalogue, well supported by Europe's leading breeze up consignors, as well as unprecedented bonuses provide the perfect ingredients for owners, especially in the current climate. The Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up has always been a prolific source of top class 2-year-olds and they stand to be rewarded like never before in 2021.”
