    • They'll probably take them off next start just to keep the horse guessing.
    • Wednesday marked the third day of the Arqana Autumn Sale, and the session, which featured National Hunt-bred yearlings, was topped by lot 650, a son of Galiway (GB) who sold to Mandore International Agency for €255,000. Consigned by The Channel Consignment and already named King Dalee (Fr), the bay is a half-brother to G1 Deutsches Derby hero Sisfahan (Ger) (Isfanhan {Ger}). Under the second dam is Grade 1-winning jumper Beaumec De Houelle (Fr) (Martaline {GB}). “I've bought him for some clients of Nicolas de Watrigant,” said Yannick Fouin. “His family is one I know well because I part-bred him. He really stood out today. We're very happy to be able to create a partnership, notably with Mr. Jathiere.” A filly by perennial sales favourite Doctor Dino (Fr) was knocked down to Saubouas Bloodstock for €142,000. Offered by Haras des Sablonnets, the daughter of No News (Fr) (Gentlewave {Ire}) (lot 702) is a half-sister to G3 Prix Sagan heroine Messagere (Fr) (Saint Des Saints {Fr}) and Grade 3 hero and young sire Paradiso (Fr) (Kapgarde {Fr}). “She's a lovely filly. She has a lot of class and walks well,” said Paul Basquin. “We have his half-brother Novak in training, and he has shown a lot of quality. She'll also be trained in France.” Doctor Dino's lot 647, Keep It Simple (Fr), caught the eye of BLM Bloodstock for €110,000 from the Haras de Clairefontaine draft. The colt's dam, Kalmia (Fr) (Authorized {Ire}) was placed twice at the graded level, and farther back, this is the family of G1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud winner and sire Silverwave (Fr). “He's a super yearling that comes from a good stud,” said Bertrand le Metayer. “He'll stay in France and be trained by Arnaud Chaillé-Chaillé.” The fourth six-figure lot on Wednesday was lot 745, a son of Blue Bresil (Fr) and the Motivator (GB) mare Stormy Ireland (Fr), who won the G1 Mares Champion Hurdle. Goldford Stud sent the bay through the ring, and NBB Racing paid €105,000 to acquire the April foal. “He's a lovely horse, with good size and out of a great racemare, said Nicolas Bertran de Balanda of NNB Racing. “I've bought him for a partnership between Frédéric Hinderzé and the MacLennan Family.” During Wednesday's session, 76 yearling sold from 119 offered (64%) for a gross of €2,393,500 (-27.6%). The average dropped 15.3% to €31,493 and the median was €20,000 (-16.7%). Over the three-day stand, 313 lots sold of 427 offered (73.3%) for an aggregate of €9,055,000 (-27.2%). The average was €28,930 (-20.3%) and the median was €15,000 (-25%). Sales action in Deauville will continue on Thursday with the Arqana Autumn Breeding Stock Sale, which begins at 11 a.m. The post Galiway Half-Brother To Deutsches Derby Hero Sisfahan Stars At Arqana appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • I take it then you believe he was poorly advised and had little direct input into the redevelopment of the Ellerlsie customised Strathayr built with the same iconic corners? The same track that has to be verti-drained at least once a week often more.
    • Perhaps you should take your BS Shades off.  Might help you write fact rather than fiction. Aside from an obtuse jibe at the sale topping purchase you haven't explained anything about the "business model'!
