00:00A Simpac, Meditate, Little Big Bear, Recent, August Sales, Graduate have more than earned
00:21their way on the Arcana Walk of Fame.
00:23Who will come next?
00:24The first lot to go over the seven-figure mark in 2023 was lot 21, on the first of three
00:31days of sale.
00:32The Colt by Dubawi, out of a half-sister to Persian King, sold to Godolphin for 1,250,000
00:37euros.
00:38It was a very good sale.
00:41I'm very happy.
00:42It was a lovely walking Dubawi colt with a great temperament and a good family, a stallion
00:49family with Persian King.
00:51So I'm very happy, and Godolphin has been a long-time supporter of the farm, and it's
00:56very nice.
00:57I think it's great.
00:58It's a great buzz to have the principals here, John Magner, Sheikh Mohammed, and all the
01:04others.
01:05And it's very good news, and well done to Arcana for welcoming those people.
01:11Lot 111, the son of Franco, out of black-type winner Villa Pisa, came 50,000 euros short
01:17of a million.
01:18The full brother to Greenfly, presented by Arad Saint-Père, was knocked down to Richard
01:23Brown.
01:24You know, pivotal mare, and she's already done it with the stallion.
01:28He's obviously a world-class sire.
01:31As he was racehorse, it was a real stretch.
01:35We were absolutely lights out, but obviously delighted to get him.
01:39Lot 118, out of the black-type heavy German family of Wild Coco and Weltmarth, was acquired
01:44for a transatlantic partnership.
01:46I know.
01:47He was a very nice Wooten Basset, and like everybody knows, Mons will do a brilliant
01:53job racing horses and everything, and listen, he's a very nice horse, and thankfully, Wooten
02:00Basset is absolutely flying at the moment.
02:03Nine yearlings sold for 500,000 euros or more, including lot 33.
02:08The filly, out of the group winner Quiet Oasis by Wooten Basset, was secured on behalf of
02:13baseball player Alex Bregman and his racing family for 550,000 euros.
02:19Alex is racing some nice fillies and hopes to be a significant breeder, both here and
02:26in the US in the future, and we're very happy with what we bought.
