Starspangledbanner Colt Knocked Down For 600k Gns To Richard Knight

The second lot north of 500,000gns in less than 20 lots at Park Paddocks, a chestnut son of Starspangledbanner (Aus) (lot 1321) from the Ballyvolane Stud consignment caught the eye of Richard Knight, who shelled out 600,000gns late in the day during Book 2. Bred by The Great Dame Partnership, he is the first foal from his dam, who is a half-sister to multiple group winner Donnerschlag (GB) (Bahamian Bounty {GB}), and stakes winner Izzy Bizu (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}). The latter is the dam of dual French listed heroine Dizzy Bizu (Ire) (Caravaggio), who has also been placed in the G3 Prix de Cabourg and G3 Prix d'Arenberg.
