Kevin Prendergast Dispersal Headlines Tattersalls Online July Sale

[Wandering Eyes]

Fourteen wildcards have been added to the Tattersalls Online July Sale, including a complete dispersal of 10 lots from the estate of the late Kevin Prendergast following the passing of the legendary Irish trainer. Bidding will open at 11am on Tuesday, July 1 and close at 11am the following day.

Among nine horses in training in the dispersal is the three-year-old filly Glory To Be, who confirmed the promise of her debut effort when filling the runner-up spot in a five-furlong maiden at Cork last time. The daughter of Cotai Glory, who is out of a half-sister to the dam of Group 1 winners Creative Force and Persuasive, will be offered as lot 110.

Another attractive prospect is the three-year-old gelding Iowntheball (lot 111). A winner over seven furlongs as a juvenile and placed twice this year, the son of Advertise is a half-brother to the Listed-placed Zim Baby.

A colt named Mergus Serrator (lot 115) features among a selection of unraced two-year-olds. The son of Masar is out of a full-sister to the Listed winner and Group 1-placed Whitecliffsofdover, while the dispersal also includes the broodmare Butterfly Garden (lot 117), a winning daughter of Awtaad who is being offered in foal to Mac Swiney.

Meanwhile, Ralph Beckett's Kimpton Down Stables have added two colts to their draft, including Too Don Juan (lot 104), a son of Too Darn Hot and out of a daughter of the multiple Group 1-winning mare Islington. He is joined by Invincible Duke (lot 105), another well-bred colt who has been placed twice to date and is a half-brother to the Group 3-placed Duchess Of Dubai.
