Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 17 Journalists Posted October 17 Over 40 lots have been catalogued for the ThoroughBid October Sale. Bidding gets underway at 9 a.m. on Friday, October 24. One of the most notable consignments is from Gordon Elliott, who will send the 132-rated chaser Mars Harper (Sulamani) (lot 34) through the ring. He will be sold with an entry into Aintree's Grand Sefton over National fences on November 8. Elliott also has Tullybeg (Sholokhov) (lot 18) set to sell. Also rated 132, he is joined by a mix of experienced winners and young prospects, including Eternal Echo (Fascinating Rock) (lot 23), who won on debut over hurdles earlier this year. Apart from the Elliott draft is Tony Joe (Westerner) (lot 29), a half-brother to Ahoy Senor (Dylan Thomas) who is trained by Tom Ellis. He won on his seasonal bow at Hexham last week. ThoroughBid CEO James Richardson said, “We're thrilled to have Gordon Elliott back with such a strong and varied consignment for the October Sale. His support and the quality of horses he brings always add a great deal of appeal to our catalogues. Mars Harper and Tullybeg in particular stand out as two excellent prospects. “The Tom Ellis-trained Tony Joe, who's a half-brother to five-time Graded winner Ahoy Senor, is also a strong feature of our October Sale catalogue as well as Henry de Bromhead's seven-year-old gelding Marv Michael, rated 126 over fences. With a total of 42 lots entered across the board, there's something for every type of buyer, which is very exciting.” The post Baker’s Dozen From Gordon Elliott’s Yard Anchor ThoroughBid October Catalogue appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
