Tara Madgwick - Thursday September 28

The Goffs Orby Yearling Sale Book 1 concluded with the second session overnight and it was a Frankel filly stealing the show when sold for €1.85million to MV Magnier.

Offered by Camas Park Stud on behalf of the Sangster family, the filly is a half-sister to Group II winner Tilsit from Multilingual, a half-sister by Dansili to Champion 3YO Miler and sire Kingman.

“We’ve had a long history with the Sangster family and we’ve been very lucky buying off them in the past, and more recently with Luxembourg,” said Magnier.

“She’s a very nice filly and Frankel is doing exceptionally well. 

"She’s very well bred, she has everything so let’s hope she’s good. I’m just delighted for Ben and all the guys. A Frankel filly with that pedigree, it’s a lot of money but it was probably a fair price for her.”

The second highest priced lot was the New Bay filly from Falling Petals that made €1.65million for Ballylinch Stud when bought by Amanda Skiffington. Bred by China Horse Club, she is a full sister to dual Group I winner Saffron Beach.

“The pedigree is fantastic and she’s just beautiful. We bought the brother last year, who looks like being very good, so that added to the appeal a bit. We thought she’s a collector’s item. She’s a special filly to breed from later on,” Skiffington said after the sale.

The highest priced colt of the sale went to Godolphin, who paid €650,000 for the Kingman colt from Dane Street. Consigned by Stauffenberg Bloodstock, the colt is a half-brother to Group I winner Skitter Scatter and to the dam of this year’s Group I Belmont Oaks Invitational winner Aspen Grove.

Anthony Stroud purchased six yearlings at the sale for Godolphin with this colt the most expensive.
