Teaming up with Highflyer Bloodstock’s Anthony Bromley, Wiltshire-based King fought off no less a rival than Qatar Racing’s David Redvers when bringing the hammer down for a colt by Excelebration (Lot 108) with a bid of 140,000gns. He proved to be one of five purchases by the head of Barbury Castle Stables, worth a total of 317,000gns. King’s purchase of the Excelebration proved to be the highlight Lot 108, Meadowview Stables’s son of Excelebration, of another very acceptable day of breeze-up trading, the fifth topped yesterday’s Tattersalls Guineas Breeze-Up Sale when such sale in Europe this year and further evidence that while purchased by Alan King and Highflyer Bloodstock for Coronavirus crashed into long-standing plans for consignors, the 140,000gns. © www.tattersalls.com better-late-than-never auctions run by Tattersalls, Goffs UK and BOTTISHAM HEATH STUD • 180 acres hedged lined post and rail paddocks • Boarding all year round • Training in a private, peaceful and secure environment • Can accommodate boarding for Mares, • Private 7-furlong poly track gallop Weanlings & Foals • Stabling for 75 horses in training • Speedy access to top-class Veterinary Care • Quick access to Newmarket gallops and all world-class facilities, within the HQ of horseracing @cowellracing Yard proudly @robertcowellracing sponsored by @robertcowellracing T: +44 (0)1638 570330 Bottisham Heath Stud, Six Mile Bottom, Contact us for further information: M: +44 (0)7785 512463 Newmarket, Suffolk, CB8 0TT www.robertcowellracing.co.uk E: [email protected] CALL: +44 (0) 1638 66 65 12 1 SALES TALK EBN: THURSDAY, 9TH JULY 2020 Arqana have yielded some good business and a number of transactions which have been above expectations. Yesterday’s catalogue was smaller than the 2019 version before it was postponed from its original early May date, and a further 41 withdrawals meant 116 horses walked the ring, a reduction of 28 year on year. That was always likely to drag down the turnover, which achieved a mark of 2,680,000gns, down 23 per cent. The median value also took a tumble, falling 28 per cent to a mark of 17,250gns, but with a couple of six-figure horses and plenty more selling for 50,000gns and above, the average price of 28,511gns was down just one per cent. The clearance rate of 81 per cent was a fall of just three per cent, which was meritorious given warnings of an economic depression ahead. The Guineas Breeze-Up is not designed for top-end horses, and therefore the figures could be analysed as a better barometer of the market for breezers and of the health of racing in general, rather than those achieved at other recent higher-end auctions. Alan King, who bought five lots for 317,000gns at Tattersalls Meanwhile those buyers who wanted a horse but could not yesterday, including the 140,000gns sale-topping colt by travel to Newmarket made a mark by purchasing eight lots worth Excelebration © Ce 177,500gns via Tattersalls’s online bidding system.
