West End Girl Tops Inaugural Tattersalls Online Ascot Sale

The Alan and Mike Spence-owned West End Girl topped the inaugural Tattersalls Ascot Online Sale when selling to Badgers Bloodstock who saw off interest from a number of bidders to secure the filly for £420,000 (US$527,184).

The daughter of Golden Horn, who is out of a half-sister to Reckless Abandon, won the Group 3 Sweet Solera Stakes at two and was placed third on her latest start in the listed Oaks Trial at Lingfield on June 5. The Mark Johnston-trained 3-year-old is declared to run in the Group 2 Ribblesdale Stakes on Tuesday at the Royal Meeting.

Lot 4, Igotatext, consigned by Archie Watson, made the perfect start to his career when making a winning debut at Lingfield just ten days ago. He caught the imagination of the Cool Silk Partnership who secured him for £165,000 (US$207,183). The son of Group 2 Gimcrack winner Ajaya now looks set to take his chance in the Group 2 Coventry Stakes on Saturday for new connections who are no stranger to Royal Ascot success.

Commenting on the first sale of its nature in the U.K. and Ireland Matthew Prior, head of Tattersalls Ascot Sales, said;

“A big team effort has gone into getting the inaugural Tattersalls Ascot Online Sale off the ground and we are very pleased with the results. There were a few technical glitches along the way which were quickly resolved and we will learn from today's sale, but overall it was a genuinely encouraging start for Tattersalls Online. We had wholehearted, enthusiastic support from the vendors as well as bidders from throughout the world, and we would like to extend our thanks and gratitude to all who supported and participated in this new venture. In particular we wish all the connections the very best of luck with their purchases this week if taking up their engagements at Royal Ascot.”

Galileo’s Peaceful Takes the Irish 1000

The Curragh’s Saturday card is being run on real Galileo (Ire) ground and his daughter Peaceful (Ire) relished the fast going to bring up a second fillies’ Classic in a week for Ballydoyle as she dominated the G1 Tattersalls Irish 1000 Guineas. The TDN Rising Star who was last seen finishing runner-up in Newmarket’s Listed Montrose Fillies’ S. was settled in a close-up second by Seamie Heffernan before edging ahead from the two pole. At the line, the 3-1 second favourite had almost two lengths to spare over the strong-closing Fancy Blue (Ire) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), with So Wonderful (War Front) close behind in third giving Michael Tabor a one-two-three. Peaceful is Galileo’s 85th Group 1 winner; a new record for a stallion as he surpassed Danehill.

Kingman’s Lord Campari Powers to TDN Rising Stardom

Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum’s 350,000gns Tattersalls October Book 1 yearling Lord Campari (Ire) (Kingman {GB}) ran sixth behind the ‘TDN Rising Star’ performance of Palace Pier (GB) (Kingman {GN}) over seven furlongs in his Aug. 30 debut at Sandown and exploded onto the scene with a Rising Star of his own when upped to one mile in division one of Saturday’s It’s Not Rocket Science With MansionBet Novice S. at Newbury. The 15-8 second favourite was sharply into stride and on the front end from the outset. In command on the bridle fro the most part, the repsonse was immediate when shaken up approacing the final furlong and he bounded clear in taking fashion to easily account for previous winner Tsar (GB) (Kingman {GB}) by an impressive 4 3/4 lengths.

“He jumped on my foot when I was saddling him, so he has redeemed himself well and the win has made me feel better,” revealed in-form trainer Roger Varian. “We liked him last year, but he is a big, raw horse. He travelled nicely and quickened well and it was a nice seasonal debut. We will see how he is in the morning then take it from there.”

Lord Campari, half-brother to an unraced 2-year-old filly by The Gurkha (Ire), becomes the second scorer from four runners for Listed Boadicea Fillies’ S. winner Blanche Dubawi (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), herself the leading performer out of G3 World Trophy victrix Dixie Belle (GB) (Diktat {GB}). The latter is herself the leading performer out of an unraced daughter of the dual stakes-placed Mareha (Ire) (Cadeaux Genereux {GB}), who in turn is a half-sister to G2 Futurity S. runner-up Chapel Crescent (Ire) (College Chapel {GB}).
