Four weanlings from the first crop of Equinox are bound to attract attention when sales action returns to the Northern Horse Park in Hokkaido on Tuesday, October 21. The single-session Mixed Sale features a selection of 135 weanlings, fillies out of training and broodmares. Plenty of pedigrees familiar to European breeders feature among the 68 foals in the catalogue, including Equinox colts out of the G1 Prix Saint-Alary winner Incarville (Wootton Bassett) and four-time Group 1 winner Iridessa (Ruler Of The World). Twenty-three of the world champion's first foals were sold at the JRHA Select Sale in July for an average of ¥155m ($1.04m/€897,450). The first foal of the G1 Prix de l'Abbaye winner The Platinum Queen (Cotai Glory), a colt by Drefong, is also catalogued, along with a colt by Kingman out of 1,000 Guineas winner Cachet (Aclaim). Another first foal is that of the G1 Nunthorpe Stakes winner Winter Power (Bungle Inthejungle), who has a colt by Japanese champion sire Kizuna. Two sons of Frankel are also represented by first-crop foals: the Irish Derby winner Westover has a weanling colt and filly in the sale, as does the Grade 1 winner Grenadier Guards. Among the broodmares and broodmare prospects is the six-year-old Chaton Ange, a daughter of Deep Impact and Breeders' Cup winner Stephanie's Kitten, who is offered carrying her second foal by Nadal, while later in the book her Maurice half-sister Kitten Hill also features, in foal for the first time to Indy Champ. Replete (Makfi), a 12-year-old daughter of Banks Hill is being sold with a February cover to Siskin, while among the fillies out of training is the four-year-old Cumberland, a winner last year over 1700m, who is by Duramente out of the GI La Troienne Stakes winner Big World (Custom For Carlos). “This is a great opportunity for owners and breeders to buy some some Japanese bloodstock,” said Northern Farm's representative Shingo Hashimoto at Tattersalls this week. “International breeders have bought at this sale in the past and sometimes they keep the mares in the country for a while to be covered with a Japanese stallion and then export them afterwards.” He added, “The weanling catalogue is very strong. It's almost the same as the July [JRHA Select] sale. The reason we started this sale was because the buyers requested more opportunities to buy more foals, but we couldn't expand the July sale any more. So we decided to make a mixed sale with the weanlings and the broodmares.” The English version of the catalogue for the Northern Farm Mixed Sale 2025 is available in the Equineline sales app or can be viewed online.

The Broadster should let them influence the market and then pounce. -

Perfect punters for Betcha Hopefully they are already breeding more. -
well we can only Hope they get the financial situation sorted out if it's that dire. I must say , I thought it was important to keep racing there so some of the locals could get a win . Away from the powerhouses of Barry Purdons, Tony H , Ray Green and Telfers . BUT was pleasantly surprised to see great success for the Cambridge Team tonight with not just Nicky Chilcott and Owen Gillies getting Auckland winners tonight , but David Butcher still a force with his 2 mid class horses who seem real nice ones , and Matty White's Stable too, still wins races at both venues as well. a fine horseman. (well done Monika on a driving double tonight too) So if your Cambridge does go belly up like the South Islanders seem to want, , then it's great to see the Cambridge Trainers can take it up to the Auckland Trainers ok anyway 👍🙂. 4 Wins tonight was pretty good. and fancy Barry driving a winner after all these years? 5 years out of the sulky. his first this decade I believe. on ya Barry 🏆🍻
