Auctav Winter Breeding Catalogues Online

The Winter Breeding Sale catalogues, featuring lots from all disciplines, was unveiled by Auctav on Wednesday. Held on Thursday, Dec. 1, beginning at 11 a.m., the Auctav Winter Breeding Stock Sale of Stallion Shares features stallion shares and breeding rights of trotters, National Hunt and Flat stallions. Lot 4 is a half-share in three-time Group 1 winner Persian King (Ire), while there is also a breeding right in G1 Irish Derby hero Latrobe (Ire) as lot 5.

Later on Dec. 1 beginning at 4 p.m., there will also be the Auctav Winter Breeding Stock Sale, featuring fillies and mares. Some of the stallions represented by in foal mares include Zelzal (Fr) and Wooded (Ire).

Arnaud Angeliaume, Auctav General Manager, said, “It is a great satisfaction to have gathered all those lots. Having an “open” sale was essential to us to avoid overloading an already dense calendar. It is a date that we want to keep for the long term. Auctav and online sales have significant advantages for this type of sale because the broodmares avoid travel and all the health risks that go with it. We care about the health and well-being of those who are the industry's future.”

First Mares Scanned In Foal By Fifty Stars

Group 1 winner Fifty Stars (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Aus}), who stands at Sunnyhill Stud in Ireland, has had his first mares scanned in foal. Some mares in foal to the half-brother to Leopardstown Grade 1 winner Whiskey Sour (Ire) (Jeremy) include Grade 2 Fairyhouse Festival winner Lady Breffni (Ire) (Yeats {Ire}), herself a half-sister to the dam of dual G3 Grand National winner Tiger Roll (Ire) (Authorized {Ire}); Moraine (GB) (Rainbow Quest), the dam of Wicklow Brave (GB) (Beat Hollow {GB}); Kerry and Munster National-winning Cabaret Queen (GB) (King's Theatre {Ire}); bumper winner Stops The Nation (Ire) (Bated Breath {GB}), who is a sister to Wicklow Brave; and AQPS Grade 3 winner Et Dite (Fr) (Limnos {Jpn}). The 7-year-old, who won the G1 Australian Cup at Flemington over 10 furlongs, stands for €3,000 this year.

“We're delighted to see Fifty Stars with his first mares in foal,” said Jack Cantillon. “His walk was the talk of the Irish Stallion Trail and his first book is proving hugely exciting. A big thank you to breeders for their immense support at Sunnyhill including in particular his racing owner Gerry Ryan who invested almost €250,000 at the mares' sales to support Fifty Stars. We couldn't be more excited after his flying start.”

Scheduled for July 7-9, 853 lots, divided between 742 horses and fillies in and out of training and 110 broodmares-13 with foals at foot, will sell at Park Paddocks in Newmarket over the three-day stand. Past graduates of the sale include recent G1 Doomben Cup hero Zaaki (GB) (Leoridesanimaux {Brz}).

Large consignments from owner/breeders Cheveley Park Stud (16), Godolphin (45), Juddmonte Farms (24), Newsells Park Stud, Shadwell Estates (102) and the Royal Studs have all been entered. Since 2019, the dams of 11 Group 1 winners have passed through the sale, among them the dams of Golden Horde (Ire) (Lethal Force {Ire}), Campanelle (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) and Russian Camelot (Ire) (Camelot {GB}).

Mares in foal to established sires like Bated Breath (GB), Dark Angel (Ire), Iffraaj (GB), Invincible Spirit (Ire), Mehmas (Ire), New Approach (Ire), Oasis Dream (GB), Sea The Moon (Ger), and Showcasing (GB) will be offered, just to name a few. Younger stallions are also represented by in foal mares, among them Blue Point (Ire), Churchill (Ire), Cracksman (GB), Earthlight (Ire), Expert Eye (GB), Masar (Ire), Mohaather (GB), Ribchester (Ire), Study Of Man (Ire), and Without Parole (GB).

Some of the top lots are: MSP Dubai Fashion (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) (lot 42) carrying to Blue Point (Ire); Maid's Cap (Ire) (Helmet {Aus}) (lot 122), a half-sister to G1 Melbourne Cup winner Cross Counter (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}) in foal to Cracksman (GB); G1 Cheveley Park S. heroine Hooray (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), who was covered by Ulysses (Ire) this March and sells as lot 175; Monzza (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}) (lot 113), a daughter of Group 1 winner Zee Zee Top (GB) (Zafonic) in foal to Bated Breath (GB); the five-time black-type winner and dual Group 2-placed Make A Challenge (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) (lot 716); G2 Mill Reef S. winner Pierre Lapin (Ire) (Cappella Sansevero {GB}) (lot 767); 2021 Listed Woodcote S. heroine Oscula (Ire) (Galileo Gold {GB}) (lot 243); and the Group 3-placed Hala Hala Hala (Ire) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}) (lot 710).

In 2020, the sale was held over two days with a reduced catalogue of 572 due to COVID-19. A total of 330 horses sold for a gross of 5,940,900gns. The average was 18,003gns and the median was 10,000gns. Topping the sale at 130,000gns apiece were Kalagia (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) and New Jazz (Scat Daddy).

Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony said, “The Tattersalls July Sale has an extraordinary record not only for producing high class horses-in-training, but also broodmares of the very highest quality. To date in 2021 mares purchased from the July Sale have produced Group 1 and 2 winners in America, Australia, Dubai and Japan bought for as little as 8,000 guineas and headed by the outstanding Group 1 Australian Oaks winner Hungry Heart (Aus) whose dam Harlech (GB) was a 60,000 guineas purchase from Godolphin in 2016. This year's Tattersalls July catalogue features the usual compelling combination of well bred fillies and in foal mares as well as high class horses in training and significant consignments from Godolphin, Juddmonte Farms and Shadwell Estates, all of which look set to attract plenty of interest from domestic and international buyers alike.”

Bidding will be available in person, as well as via the Tattersalls Live Internet Bidding platform or though telephone bidding.
