00:00Broodmare's breeding prospects and horses in training took to the stage for day two
00:06of the Arcana summer sale.
00:08Lot 480 La Filomena, a three-year-old filly out of Jean-Claude Rouget's training yard,
00:13topped the sale at 395,000 euros.
00:17The black-type performer by Lope de Vega, whose maternal family already produced arcwinners
00:22Sagamix and Sagas, was secured by Blenford Bloodstock in partnership with Superiamo Bloodstock.
00:29She's a lovely filly.
00:30It's very, very rare to get a filly that's untapped.
00:33She's a lightly raced, last out, listed place filly.
00:36Great pedigree, great physique.
00:37Look, she's a 300,000 guinea yearling, and now she's listed place, so it's a funny market
00:42we work in.
00:43You know, so you pay more for something you don't know can run.
00:46We know this filly has ability.
00:48She's very good looking.
00:49We've got a great stallion, great family.
00:52The family's on the upgrade every week.
00:55It's a family that Blenford's closely associated with, with perfect power.
00:58And also, the horse that was third in the Cheshire, and it was very unlucky, the half-brother.
01:01It's gone blank on his name.
01:03Lovely, lovely filly.
01:05Very rare to get the opportunity to buy a filly that's untapped.
01:08Lot 405, Jamaica, was knocked down to Hubert Barbe.
01:12Already a winner at Roteuil, the gelding sold for 310,000 euros.
01:19He will now head to David Pipes and race in the colors of Professor Caroline Tisdale.
01:25She dreams to have a good chaser for the big meeting, so hopefully he's going to do
01:29the job.
01:30He's an improving type, he has the scope, he has everything, so now we think he's going
01:36to progress.
01:37Team Mullins kept on recruiting, securing, amongst others, lot 495, full of shade, for
01:43280,000 euros.
01:45The four-year-old filly is already placed on the Roteuil hurdles.
01:49We're looking at the last race in Roteuil.
01:51She made a huge mistake, probably would have won.
01:55And she's a very good-looking mare, with a pedigree.
01:58We love Norris Cattall, Willie Azalao, he's a top sire now.
02:03So we pay a little bit more than we thought, but, you know, Willie's happy.
02:10If Willie's happy, I'm happy.
02:11Lot 290, Sideralis, a black-type performer over the jumps, fetched the top prize in the
02:17breeding section, with bids rising slowly but surely.
02:20Patience paid off.
02:21Jean-Christophe Raymond had the last word at 145,000 euros for the five-year-old in
02:26full to Norris Cattall.
02:51It's Maurice Rouault, his son, François, and Jean-Marie Mercier, who were in the Charolais
02:57cattle.
02:58And we did charolais competitions together, that's it.
03:02I have a passion for animals.
03:05As far as the Charolais cattle are concerned, unfortunately, I'm stopping, because the
03:14The 2023 edition of the Summer Sale was the second most successful ever, after a record-breaking
03:29year in 2022.
03:31We look forward to welcoming you again in Deauville for the August sales and the inaugural
03:36running of the Arcana Series.
