There was barely time to draw breath at Park Paddocks before Watership Down Stud's Frankel (GB) colt out of Group 3 winner So Mi Dar (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) brought the hammer down with a new top price at Book 1 so far. At 2.8 million gns, lot 221 is the most expensive yearling sold anywhere in the world this year.

It was Tuesday's leading buyer Godolphin that prevailed in the contest for the colt whose dam is a full-sister to Darley's first-season sire Too Darn Hot (GB), but agent Anthony Stroud faced stiff opposition from Bill Farish of Lane's End Farm, who was sitting alongside David Ingordo in the ring at Tattersalls.

The March-born colt is third foal of the Musidora S. winner So Mi Dar, a daughter of treble Group 1 winner Dar Re Mi (GB) (Singspiel {Ire}), who is herself out of the Watership Down Stud foundation mare Darara (Ire) (Top Ville {GB}).
