The average for the entire sale settled at a mark of 228,078gns, up 3%, although the median took a dip to 130,000gns, down 13%. Nine horses made a million guineas or more, three more than the previous best for the event. The leading buyer was John Ferguson of Sheikh Mohammed’s organisation and, given Ferguson’s passion for all things Dubawi over the week, it was no surprise that Darley’s top stallion was also leading sire at the sale. His 15 yearlings sold for a remarkable average of 972,667gns, heading the average of 16 for 610,313gns. For a sire whose first crop is only two, ’s ten at an average of 733,500gns was also pretty amazing, but not, given the adulation in which he is held. Ferguson spent 13,910,000gns on 26 horses, heading a Coolmore partnership of MV Magnier, Markus Jooste and Peter and Ross Doyle, who bought 12 for 9,010,000gns.

This sale was not short of Dubawis, but vendors and breeders of his stock picked the right occasion to part with their stock, for they have been in big demand, particularly from Godolphin’s John Ferguson.
