    • Group 3 German Derby Trial winner Juwelier has been added as a wildcard for the Arqana Summer Sale.  A graduate from last year's breeze-up sale at Arqana, the Alessandro and Giuseppe Botti-trained colt has confirmed himself a classy performer this season.  The Wootton Bassett colt is out of Gravitee, a daughter of Galileo and full-sister to Intello. Juwelier will be sold in absence and will not go through the ring in Deauville. Inspections are available by contacting Alessandro and Giuseppe Botti or with the help of a member of the Arqana Bloodstock Team.

    • Some good prices but, also some definite bargains well under service fees plus costs so far.
    • Leading owner-breeder Jean-Pierre Dubois will offer more than 100 horses through the ring at the Auctav on Wednesday, August 13. This sale will include foals, broodmares, yearlings and horses-in-training over both codes.  “This is a landmark event,” Arnaud Angéliaume, director of Auctav said. “We are honoured to host Jean-Pierre Dubois' private sale. His life is an extraordinary human and professional journey. He has shaped racing genetics in France and worldwide, across both thoroughbred and trotter breeding. His influence is truly unique.” Dubois is without doubt one of the most influential figures in the history of racehorse breeding in France. Originally renowned for his work with trotters, he successfully applied his long-term vision and bold genetic instincts to the Thoroughbred, excelling in both Flat and National Hunt racing across continents. He belongs to the very exclusive club of owner-breeders with Group 1 victories in all racing codes. Among his most famous breeding achievements is Stacelita, by Monsun out of Soignée (Dashing Blade), a six-time Group 1 winner in France and the USA.  More recently, Sparkling Plenty, by Kingman out of Speralita (Frankel), confirmed the strength of the Dubois breeding programme by winning the 2024 Prix de Diane, adding another chapter to a legacy built on carefully structured families. Familiar horses that have been associated with Dubois include Noble Truth, Blue Wings, Qualisaga, Red Line, Zonza, Garnica, Othermix, Just Little, Fabulously, Mysterious Lina, Numereius, Super Celebre, and many more.

    • The real Themightyquinn... Q How did he become an Aussie ,and how is he 'unique' with a feat that will never be matched ? A.  Themightyquinn started in Canterbury with Peter Bagrie and had to race against a very strong group of NZ youngsters including Auckland Reactor ,Fiery Falcon and Ohoka Arizona. He won a few races and was third on Jewels day before being sold to Gary Hall stable in Perth for good money. Then he became an Aussie and I'm Themightyquinn and soon started winning big......he won his second Interdom Final before he won his first. He won his first over a year after the race. Smoken Up[ Lance Justice] was relegated/DQ 'd. He then won a third....quite a story !!!
    • Just amazing horse TAB. YOUNG QUINN Winning the Miracle Mile from the outside impossible 6 alley. ( that was repeated by another NZer  in LOCARNO for Robin Butt just 5 years later in 1980)  Can you Believe that it's a HALF Century since Young Quinn Won at Auckland in those Photos above. ?? seems like yesterday I was NZ enjoying those amazing horses.  50 YEARS ago OMG 😳.   (I lost all my treasured race books (4 from each championship)  from those 3 Auckland Interdominions in a house fire in NZ ) all the Halwes ones from 68' when my dad first shifted us to NZ from Tas when we went with that horse who should of won the Interdominion , and my Young Quinn ones 75. and the Gammalite ones from the 1983 Interdominion still makes me sad as loved all those , with all the great horses dwelling with-in  😪
