Berkshire Phantom Claims Top Spot At Tattersalls Online July Sale

The two-time winner Berkshire Phantom (Ire) (Expert Eye {GB}) (lot 19) caught the eye of Fionn McSharry and brought a sale-topping price of 28,000gns at the close of the Tattersalls Online July Sale on Thursday.

The 88-rated gelded son of Italian Group 3 winner Silver Step (Fr) (Silver Frost {Ire}) was consigned by Andrew Balding's Park House Stables. His extended family features stakes-winning German gallopers Network (Ger) (Monsun {Ger}) and Novello (Ger) (Esclavo {Fr}).

McSharry said, “As a new trainer we are hoping to get some nice runs from him, and we hope he might deliver some Saturday wins. He will come straight into training and we would be aiming to keep him over a similar distance. The horse has some good form at seven furlongs so we will get him home, assess him and see where we get to.”

Garrettstown House Stables' Anadora (GB) (Havana Gold {Ire}) was knocked down to Anadora Partners for 17,500gns to be second on the leaderboard. Sold as lot 27, the 4-year-old filly sports wins on both turf and all-weather to date. She is out of the listed-placed Keladora (Crafty Prospector), herself a daughter of stakes winner and G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches second Karmifira (Fr) (Always Fair).

Rounding out the top four were a pair of lots by Cotai Glory (GB)–lot 10, Knockeen Racing's winning 80-rated filly Cosmic Invasion (Ire), and Richard Fahey's Musley Bank Stables-consigned Gannon Glory (Ire) (lot 15), who won just three days ago.

Seeking Gold Makes 78k On Tattersalls Online

Seeking Gold (Ire) (Havana Gold {Ire}), who is rated 90, was purchased for 78,000gns during the Tattersalls Online June Pop-Up Sale on Friday.

The 3-year-old colt was secured by Debbie Mountain and Qatari-based owner Hassan Al Abdulmalik, and is set to race in that country.

Mountain said, “We are very pleased. He is a nice horse and he looks like he is definitely a fast ground horse. He will come to Qatar. He has a good pedigree and looks like he will hopefully be effective from a mile to 10 furlongs. That's what we will be aiming for and he looks like a nice prospect for the future for us here. I don't think we will run him next week at Royal Ascot but I would imagine he will run again before he leaves the United Kingdom although we might save him for when he makes it over here, where his main targets will be.”

Seeking Gold won as a juvenile, and was also fourth in the Listed Ascendant S. at Haydock. His dam is a half-sister to Hong Kong's G2 Jockey Club Mile winner Wade Giles (Ire)/Destined For Glory (Ire) (Azamour {Ire}).
