A varied catalogue featuring 92 2-year-olds, 162 2- and 3-year-old stores, 151 horses-in-training, and 80 fillies and mares comprise the upcoming Arqana Summer Sale.

Flat-bred 2-year-olds will breeze at Deauville Racecourse beginning at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, July 4. The first day of the sale will consist of Flat-bred 2-year-olds and stores on Wednesday, July 5, while breeding stock and horses-in-training will sell the day after. Both sessions will begin at 11 a.m.

American Grade I winner Chez Pierre (Fr) (Mehmas {Ire}) was sourced as a juvenile out of this sale, and among the stallions represented are Group 1 sires Australia (GB), Churchill (Ire), Dark Angel (Ire), Footstepsinthesand (GB), Invincible Spirit (Ire), Kodiac (GB), Night Of Thunder (Ire), No Nay Never, Sea The Moon (Ger), Sea The Stars (Ire), Starspangledbanner (Aus), and Wootton Bassett (GB) among others.

The store portion of the sale highlights the best French National Hunt families, with full- or half-siblings to Grade 1 winner Docteur De Ballon (Fr) (Doctor Dino {Fr}) (lot 253) and Diego Du Charmil (Fr) (Ballingarry {Ire}) (lot 190) among many other quality lots. Both Flat and NH lots are set to sell as breeding stock. Drafts from Al Shaqab Racing, the Aga Khan Studs and Wertheimer et Frere highlight the horses-in-training section.

There are also 30 wildcard slots available for recent performers on the Flat and over jumps.
