00:00Part 2 of the 2023 Arcana October yearling sale stretched over two days, with some 300
00:09lots going through the ring in an active market.
00:13Nicolas de Vatrigan set the tone early, securing a filly by first crop sire without parole
00:17from Ara de la Louviere for 160,000 euros.
00:22Cracking filly, my best at the peak of the day.
00:25Yes, she's a very racing filly, I mean she's got a perfect vetting and she's a good individual,
00:33so she's meant to go to America for Marrakech group, so it's exciting you know to buy for
00:41this group, you know, they've been so successful and I hope she'll be one of the next success
00:46for them.
00:47Minutes before, the agent had acquired another filly, this one by Zarak.
00:50Lot 246 offered by Ara de l'Hôtellerie is out of Phoebe Buffet.
00:55A half-sister to the black-type mare who produced the Group 1 Prix Vermeil winner Sweet Lady,
00:59she was knocked down for 120,000 euros.
01:03We have to pay a bit more than what we were expecting, but I mean Zarak was so successful
01:08and she was a cracking filly too, so we're glad we have her.
01:12Also sold for 120,000 euros was a chestnut filly presented by Ara de Castillon out of
01:18a half-sister to Group 1 winner Soudan.
01:21I just thought she was lovely and I brought him a Bally Lynch stud, he was Stan Newbay
01:25and he always tells me to ring him if I see one I love by his talons, because he supports
01:31all his talons.
01:32Chantilly Bay's trainer Satoshi Kobayashi bought Lot 331, a Blue Point filly, the second
01:37offspring of a Dubawi mare from the black-type heavy maternal line of Call the Wind, with
01:43you and we are, for 110,000 euros.
01:51He's my client, he has a lot of horses at home, he has horses not only in Japan, he has
02:02horses in France, in the United States, he does breeding too, he's a very dynamic person.
02:11Every year he asks me to buy a pair of earrings, one or two, but especially the plush ones,
02:20which have a bit of paper, to do their rear breeding, of course you have to catch a small
02:28black-type, but that's my job.
02:32The top prize of the next session was knocked down to Joël Boinard, who needed a few minutes
02:37before he could reflect on the purchase, as he witnessed his runner succeed at nearby
02:41Deauville Racecourse.
02:43Lot 433, a Colt by Toronado, came at a price tag of 130,000 euros.
02:49It is out of Diakalani, who placed third in the Group 1 Prix de Diane, for none other
02:54than Joël Boinard.
02:55The best pair I've had in my career as a coach so far, I hope I'll have more.
02:59I think I have one of his sons, who is destined to be a very big horse of Auteuil, he has
03:04a very seductive model, the veterinary file is very good, all the lights are on.
