Tattersalls March Online Sale | Horse Racing Free Tips

Hamlet (Ire) (No Nay Never) (lot 14), a 2-year-old gelding, brought a sale-topping 26,000gns during the Tattersalls March Online Sale that wrapped on Wednesday. Offered by Johnstown Stud, the son of the Group 3 Musidora S. third Pandora (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) was purchased by Mount Racing's John Quinn.

Quinn commented, “He has a lovely pedigree and is a nice, scopey individual. I was able to visit where he's been prepped and was very pleased when I saw him move. The Tattersalls Online platform is a great vehicle for a sale of this type, for both buyers and vendors.”

It was a tie for second on the leaderboard, with the Johnstown Stud-consigned full-brothers Valley of Kings (GB) (Zoffany {Ire}) (lot 12) and Tudor (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}) (lot 25) both hammering for 24,000gns. Fernham struck for the 2-year-old Valley of Kings, who has already been gelded. Out of the Galileo mare Tiger Lilly (Ire), herself a half-sister to the stakes winner Cold Cold Woman (GB) (Machiavellian) and a full to G1 Gold Cup third Robin Hood (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), the duo's third dam is the G1 Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Arctique Royale (Ire) (Royal and Regal).

Alliance Bloodstock and Orbital Racing snapped up the 3-year-old colt, Tudor.

“Tudor has been purchased for a new syndicate, Orbital Racing,” said Alliance Bloodstock's Eimear Donnelly. “He's a lovely horse, the last of the Zoffanys and rated 77 and will suit what we are looking for. A trainer has yet to be decided.”

Matt Coleman, advisor to the complete dispersal of the late Sir Robert Ogden's stock, commented, “The Tattersalls Online platform offered us an effective way of selling these horses and we're pleased with the prices that they all made. It was a very positive experience.”

At the close of the sale, 14 lots sold (58%) of 24 offered for a gross of 137,000gns. The median was 6,500gns and the average was 9,786gns.

The dispersal of the late Peter Magnier's Brittas House Stud will come to a close with offerings during Tattersalls's Online 23rd March Sale.

The 8-year-old We Are Ninety (Ire) (Thewayyouare) headlines the dispersal offerings, and the Listed Haras De Bouquetot Fillies Trial S. winner is offered alongside her filly foal by Calyx (GB). We Are Ninety is also set to be covered by first-season sire Sottsass (Fr). We Are Ninety boasts a deep pedigree, her second dam being Brigid (Irish River {Fr}), whose descendants include Group 1 winners Listen (Ire) (Sadler's Wells), Sequoyah (Ire) (Sadler's Wells), Henrythenavigator (Kingmambo) and Magician (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). We Are Ninety's filly foal half-sister by Ten Sovereigns (Ire) will also be offered alongside a foster mare to be returned once the foal is weaned.

Two daughters of Galileo will be offered: the listed-winning Innocent Air (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) in-foal to the late Zoffany (Ire); and Zee Zee Gee (GB), a daughter of the Group 1-winning Zee Zee Top (GB) (Zafonic) and half-sister to dual Group 1 winner Izzi Top (GB) (Pivotal {GB}). Zee Zee Gee's yearling filly by No Nay Never will also be offered.

The dispersal is completed by the Hugo Palmer-trained 4-year-old filly Combine (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}), who recently won at Wolverhampton and is rated 95 by Timeform. Combine's first three dams are all stakes horses and her third dam, My Emma (GB) (Marju {Ire}), won the G1 Prix Vermeille and G1 Yorkshire Oaks.

“The Tattersalls Online platform made an auspicious debut when West End Girl sold for a UK and Irish record online price of £420,000 on the eve of Royal Ascot last year, and to be offering the final instalment of the Brittas House Stud Dispersal at our latest online sale demonstrates the confidence that vendors already have in our online product,” said Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony. “We have already sold six figure lots from our online sales to Australia, Hong Kong, South Africa and the U.S. and the 23rd March Sale already features lots which look set to appeal to a global audience.”
