She stays in Europe.” Australia’s Emirates Park was another overseas investor to take a gem from the ring, paying 500,000gns for a Galileo filly out of Melito, a dual Gr.1 winner down under. Emirates Park, which is home to 120 mares and four (including expat Dream Ahead), is owned by HE Nasser Lootah, who sent stud manager Bryan Carlson to Britain to secure some new blood for the stud. Carlson said: “She’ll stay in the UK for now, but has a page that suggests she could very well go to Australia one day. The boss is from Dubai and has a number of friends who race here, and he would like to do the same.” This was a fine result for Baroda & Colbinstown Studs who acted as consignor – David Myerscough said of the yearling: “She’s been a pleasure – a sweet filly, and I hope she’s lucky for her new owners and Guillaume Vitse of Haras de Colleville, vendors of the that they come back.

She had been foaled by Restia, whose mating with Kendargent resulted in top-class filly Restiadargent, a Gr.2 winner and placed in the Gr.1 Golden Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot. Grimthorpe said: “She is a lovely filly, and exactly what we wanted to buy. We wanted to buy a new family to provide us with an outcross. Prince Khalid was keen to bring some new blood into the stud and so we are delighted to have bought her. And we have one or two French trainers who might like her.” For Haras de Colleville manager, Guillaume Vitse, the result fully justified the trip across the . Asked why he did not sell the filly at Arqana, he said: “We had a Frankel colt out of Restiadargent to sell there, and it would have meant one horse following the other into the ring.

Highclere Stud consigned the colt, who had been bred at the Cumani family’s Fittocks Stud out of the mare Millennium Star (), who failed to win in three attempts, but was a sibling to no fewer than nine winners foaled by Diamonaka. They included the stallion Diamond Green. Howson has had dealings with the family in the past, for he bought Millennium Star on the Cumanis behalf for 300,000gns at the December Sale three years ago. The foal she carried at that time, the Pivotal colt Total Star, has won twice this season for ’s stable. The triangular partnership between Highclere Stud as consignor, Fittocks Stud the vendor, and Dubawi as stallion, later reaped an even bigger pot when selling a colt (Lot 328), who was bought by Roger Varian for 850,000gns. There was a hint of bitter-sweetness about this deal, for the mare who produced the yearling – So Silk () – died when foaling this year, reported Luca Cumani. He added: “I’m delighted with the price and he’s going to a very good trainer.” So Silk’s loss would have been keenly felt, for while her yearling was obviously rather special, she had also foaled the Gr.2 Park Hill Stakes winner Silk Sari and Listed-placed Fashion Fund. Varian, who had to see off interest from bloodstock agent Charlie Gordon-Watson and John Ferguson, has been one of several buyers who have been active when a son or daughter of Dubawi has come to the market during the first two days of this sale.

One week into my studies at Cambridge and after some tedious introductions to legal theory and practice I was finally attending my first proper lecture. Criminal Law no less! There before me stood one of the world’s most learned scholars ready to share his profound wisdom and insight with lowly me. Without introduction, dancing from one foot to the other like an effervescent raspberry, hands wringing with furtive glee, this most eminent professor introduced me to the celebrated case of Regina v Collins. It could only happen in Colchester. It was four in the morning on Saturday 24th July 1971 when an intoxicated 19-year-old named Stephen Collins waddled past the house where he was helping with various odd jobs. Oh, but this was not just any house. It was her house! And lo, his ladder was still there, fully extended and resting against her Whipper window. Her open window!

It is one thing for vulgar language to be used in such naked male with an erect, er, “peninsula”.
