Tattersalls October yearling sales Part 1
The Part 1 sale gets underway at Tattersalls tomorrow in what looks to be another strong yearling sale this year.
A few quite interesting types go through the ring tomorrow. Just to go through a couple of them: Lot 2 is a Dubai Destination half brother to high class Hawksley Hill and a close relation to top class sprinter Benbaun. Lot 10 is a full sister to the top class Footstepsinthesand. Lot 25 is a Kyllachy half sister to Dutch Art to prove himself to be a very high class 2yo and placed in the 2,000 Guineas this year. Lot 41 is a Montjeu out of pretty useful American racemare Holy Nola, making her a half sister to high class Preachinatthebar. Lot 43 is a Sadler's Wells half brother to Simply Perfect who is a Gr1 winning and placed filly. I expect this one to sell very well. The mare herself (Hotelgenie dot com) was also very good in her own right. Lot 66 is the second foal out of the top class mare Janet who won plenty of races in America. This yearling is by a top stallion in Cape Cross. Lot 116 is a Cape Cross half brother to top class horses Latice and Lawman (both Gr1 winners in France). Lot 143 is yet another Cape Cross, this time a half brother to classic winning Sixties Icon. Lot 145 is more of sentimental value for me and a number of forumers as this fella is a fullt brother to the talented but ill-fated Gypsy King. Lot 147 is a Elusive Quality out of the beautifully bred mare named Lucky (own sister to King of Kings). This first foal from her should make quite a bit. Lot 169 is yet another Cape Cross, this time a half sister to the top class Marienbard who was the chapion older horse back in 2002. As i say, these are just a few of the ones that stood out to me during tomorrow's sale. The sale goes on all week, but i haven't had to chance to have a real look through the catalogue for the rest of the days.

Danehill Dancer - Green Swallow Bertolini - Hiwaayati anyone who wants to find the details of the sale, selling prices and purchasers, just go to www.tattersalls.com Walked past Sheikh Mo and the clan earlier, he didn't look too impressed with the rain!

The HKJC also bought a little colt who i used to look after as a foal. He was a good little kid.
you will have to watch out for him, mmsc. Pivotal - Kirov. They paid 160,000 for him! Can i adopt him him before he has even been named?

Do the HKJC buy a lot? It seems strange to me to see a Jockey Club buying yearlings. Yes, i walked right by Sheikh Mo and his clan with John Ferguson. It was pouring with rain, and he didn't look very happy.
