3million Euro Filly Tops Goffs Orby

Tara Madgwick - Thursday October 3
A superbly bred Galileo filly from blue hen Green Room has topped the Goffs Orby Yealing Sale in Ireland when selling for 3million euros while the second highest priced offering on day two went to Aquis Farm.

Galileo filly from Green RoomA full sister to Galileo's Group I winning fillies Forever Together and Together Forever and half-sister to Group I winner Lord Shanakill, the sought after filly was bred by Vimal and Gillian Khosla and was bought by MV Magnier / Westerberg.

"Firstly I would say that I'm delighted for Vimal and Gillian. It's a great result for them and they've been rewarded for putting a lot of faith in Galileo over the years," said MV Magnier.

"Obviously it's been a very lucky family for us already with Together Forever and Forever Together and this mare has produced another Group 1 winner in Lord Shanakill so she's an outstanding producer and we are lucky to be able to buy a filly like this as she really is a collector's item."

The second highest priced yearling on day two was a Sea the Stars colt from Ownwan that made 550,000 euros when knocked down to Aquis Farm. He comes from the family of Epsom Derby winner High Chaparral, now a leading sire of sires.
