Sun Bloodstock Purchase Top Lot Tattersalls December Yearlings

Media Release - Monday November 25

The Tattersalls December Sale got underway in Newmarket with a day of yearlings to kick off proceedings. The DUBAWI colt from Hazelwood Stud was the top price of the day with three lots selling for 100,000 guineas or more.

O’Callaghan buys Dubawi colt for 200,000 Guineas. 

200,000  euro Dubawi coltDavid O'Callaghan of Sun Bloodstock secured the DUBAWI colt out of VOLEUSE DE COEURS for 200,000 guineas after seeing off Stroud Coleman Bloodstock’s Anthony Stroud. The colt is out of the Group 1 Irish St Leger-winning daughter of TEOFILO.

"We've bought out the partnership," said O'Callaghan. "She was a very good mare and he is quite similar to her in looks – he had just been held up a bit and so had not sold earlier this autumn. 

"This colt is a good mover and looks as though he will need some time – that is fine, we can give him time. He goes to David Simcock."

The April-born colt was consigned by Hazelwood Bloodstock, consignor of this year's 3.6 million guineas October Book 1 top lot, also a son of DUBAWI.

The Tattersalls December Foal Sale starts at 10am on Wednesday, November 27.
