Three of that quartet have at least been able to take place in their intended venues, albeit Arqana's flagship sale was three weeks later than usual. The one-day Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale was moved to Newmarket, and Park Paddocks will also host the Tattersalls Irelend September Sale next week, which has been reduced to two days from three, presumably because some vendors will be unable or unwilling to ship their horses to Newmarket at significant extra cost. Of the sales to come, Tattersalls October has remained intact and in situ, as has the Arqana October sale which will also incorporate horses from the cancelled Osarus September Sale and will now be held over five days. Further relocations from Ireland will be faced by vendors at the Goffs Orby and Sportsman's Sales, which will now be held in Doncaster from Sept. 24 to Oct. 1. It is fair to say that this year has been a logistical nightmare for sales houses, vendors and buyers, with the need to weigh up varying travel and quarantine restrictions from country to country.

Positives to Be Found in Yearling Market Cont. from p1 A number of Irish pinhookers have made their way to Kentucky for the Keeneland September Sale, which is taking place across the next fortnight and has proved such a fertile source of material for the European breeze-ups in the last few years. But almost every trip now comes at the cost of another in a sales season which has become increasingly crowded. It will almost certainly contract somewhat in the coming years as the full economic force of the pandemic is felt and breeders fall by the wayside. One of the very few upsides to the current situation may be that breeders take a keener look at the quality Queen Daenerys | Scoop Dyga of mare they cover, particularly if they have no intention of racing her offspring themselves. International participation is also a cornerstone of Arqana's So how have the yearling sales held up so far in Europe?

    SATURDAY, 11 MAY 2019 SCENE SET FOR BRIGHT VAN DYCK PUTS DERBY PROSPECTS ON THE LINE AT LINGFIELD By Tom Frary BREEZE IN DEAUVILLE At this time of year, there is barely time to reflect as the races that count come thick and fast. It is not even a week since Newmarket=s Guineas were played out in what seemed like a wintry grip, but already we have a new, red-hot Derby favourite. Sir Dragonet (Ire) (Camelot {GB}) forced his way past his Ballydoyle peers at a rain-hit Chester and now it is up to stablemate Anthony Van Dyck (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) to regain kudos with the blue riband on the horizon. Sadly, Lingfield=s Derby Trial no longer carries Group 3 status and there have been many moons since High-Rise (Ire), Kahyasi (Ire) and Slip Anchor (GB) won en route to Derby glory, but last year=s G2 Futurity S. winner is the classiest participant in this listed Classic pointer for some time.

Elm Park is a genuinely high class horse for the new season and the likes of Scotland, Absolutely So and Tullius are also older horses that are proven at Group level. Blond Me and Scottish were both Group placed as three year olds following fairly uninspiring two year old careers and they both remain in training. “Do you have polos?” Their achievements last season certainly encourage one to think that there may well be some less obvious talent to emerge amongst the Front cover: Berkshire Beauty winning at Southwell under Oisin Murphy three year olds and, as long as we can keep horses and humans healthy, we are sure to have an exciting and successful year on the Back cover: First lot on the Lochsong on a frosty winter racecourse. morning Whilst it is still early days for the two year olds, I have been impressed by what I have seen of our juvenile colts so far.
