Book 2, set for Oct. 15 to 17, features 804 yearlings that will look to follow in the footsteps of Book 2 graduates Battaash (GB) (Dark Angel {Ire}) and Poet’s Word (GB) (Poet’s Voice {GB}), both Group 1 winners this year. This year’s class includes siblings to 176 black-type winners including recent Group 1 winners Best Solution (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}), Blue Point (Ire) (Shamardal), Due Diligence (War Front), Unfortunately (Ire) (Society Rock {Ire}) and Urban Fox (GB) (Foxwedge {Aus}). Thirty-six of the current top 40 active British and Irish sires have progeny catalogued. Book 3 will take place on Oct. 18 and 19 and is comprised of 652 yearlings. Book 4 is slated for the morning of Oct. 20 with 122 yearlings set to sell. “The highest-rated horse in Europe, Poet’s Word, and the world’s highest-rated sprinter, Battaash, were both purchased at Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale and Book 3 has also enjoyed a banner year with the likes of Group 1 winner Urban Fox and top 2-year-old Signora Cabello,” said Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony. “The demand for places in the 2018 Tattersalls October Yearling Sale has ensured genuine quality from start to finish and there is no doubt that plenty more champions will emerge from the second week of Europe’s premier yearling sale.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
