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