Havana Grey Breeding Right Tops Tattersalls Online

A breeding right in leading first-season sire Havana Grey (GB) (lot 57) brought 115,000gns from Badgers Bloodstock to top the Tattersalls Online November Sale on Thursday. Offered on behalf of a partnership, the Whitsbury Manor Stud stallion's breeding right proved popular. The grey has already sired 13 group/listed performers, and his top-priced yearling went for 325,000gns this season. His stud fee has risen to £18,500 for 2023.

Tom Pritchard-Gordon of Badgers Bloodstock said, “Havana Grey is a very exciting young stallion who continues to exceed expectations. He is the sire of 13 stakes performers from 83 runners which is remarkable; 16% stakes performing 2-year-olds to runners off a stallion fee of £8,000. Whitsbury Manor Stud have been very conservative with their pricing this year, standing at £18,500 and I predict that in a couple of years he will look remarkably cheap.”

Listed winner Willesee (GB) (Gleneagles {Ire}) (lot 34) was the second dearest lot of the day at 90,000gns. Sent through the ring by Jessica Harrington's Commonstown Stables, the 3-year-old filly went to Mountarmstrong Stud. Her second dam is G3 Prix d'Aumale heroine Helleborine (GB) (Observatory), the dam of G2 Coventry S. winner and sire Calyx (GB) (Kingman {GB}).

Rounding out the top three was lot 43, Consensus De Vega (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}), from Roger Varian's Carlburg Stables consignment. Armando Duarte shelled out 24,000gns for the winner, who hails from the family of Artiste Royal (Ire) (Danehill).

Breeding rights in Harry Angel (Ire) (lot 56) and Territories (Ire) (lot 54) went for 18,000gns and 17,500gns, respectively, to Bearstone Stud and Sophie Buckley's Culworth Grounds Farm.

Overall, 38 lots changed hands for a gross of 446,500gns and a clearance rate of 67%. The average was 11,750gns and the median was 5,500gns.
