A breeding right (lot 1) and a nomination (lot 4) to promising young stallion Time Test (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) will be offered at the Jan. 19 Tattersalls Online Sale of Breeding Rights and Nominations. Bidding will open at 10 a.m. and will close at noon.
The National Stud's Time Test already has the G3 Dick Poole Fillies' S. winner Romantic Time (GB) and the German Group 3 victor Rocchigiani (GB) to his credit. In addition, his Sunset Shiraz (Ire) placed in the G1 Moyglare Stud S. Of his 11 winners, five have earned black type, among them the listed winners Tardis (GB) and The King's Horses (GB). He was the leading European first-crop sire by black-type winners in 2021.
Also selling are breeding rights to first-crop covering sires A'Ali (Ire) (Society Rock {Ire}) (lot 3) and Lope Y Fernandez (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) (lot 2). The former, now residing at Newsells Park Stud, won the G2 Norfolk S., the G2 Prix Robert Papin and the G2 Flying Childers S. during his 2-year-old year. He added the G2 Sapphire S. and G3 Coral Charge S. as a sophomore and is the highest-rated son of the late Society Rock on Timeform.
Now based at The National Stud in Newmarket, Lope Y Fernandez was a €900,000 yearling who placed five times at the highest level including the G1 Irish 2000 Guineas, GI Breeders' Cup Mile and the G1 Queen Anne S. Rated 120 by Timeform last year and a leader of the sprint division in Ireland in 2020, his owners Coolmore retained part ownership in the young stallion, alongside Whitsbury Manor Stud and Nick Bradley Racing
