Classic Siblings Headline Arqana’s October Sale

[Wandering Eyes]

Half-siblings to Classic winners Look De Vega and Coeursamba are among more than 800 horses catalogued for the five-day Arqana October Yearling Sale, which begins in Deauville on Tuesday, October 21.

Part 1 of the sale, which takes place over Tuesday and Wednesday, also includes a St Mark's Basilica three-parts-brother to multiple Group 1 winner Laurens, half-brothers to the Group 1 winners Woodshauna and Kew Gardens, and a full-sister to G1 Prix Marcel Boussac victrix Zellie. 

Also featured is the first foal, a filly by Frankel, of the G1 Matron Stakes winner Pearls Galore. She is offered by Haras de Saint Pair, which provided the co-top lot – a €500,000 colt by Kingman out of Via Pisa – at the 2024 Arqana October Sale. He shared top billing with Haras du Mont dit Mont's son of Night Of Thunder and the Listed-placed Paramount, who is now named Makerstoun and is in training with Jane Chapple-Hyam for Peter Harris.

In total, this year's October catalogue, which is now available online, features 14 yearlings who are either out of a Group 1 winner or a sibling or half-sibling to a Group 1 winner, compared to eight in last year's sale. 

Part 2 of the Arqana October Sale is conducted over the afternoons of October 23 and 24, and the auction concludes with Part 3 on Saturday, October 25.
