It took regular visitor Mark Richards quite a while to strike for the Hong Kong Jockey Club in what he thought was a strong market for his type of horse, but a bid of €200,000 gained him Lot 195, a colt by Kodiac from Stauffenberg Bloodstock, which contrastingly found the day overall quite hard going. The late April colt is out of the US two-year-old winner Mine Inning (Mining), the dam of eight winners, including US Gr.2 winner Lot 49, a colt from the first crop of Sea The Moon, that was Ramazutti (Honor Grades). “I would like to have paid a little less, sold to Godolphin for €460,000, photographed with Niko but Kodiac is a stallion we can sell quite easily in Hong Kong, though Lafrentz from Gestut Gorlsdorf and Kathryn Birch. we have not had that many of them as yet.

Like Sea The Moon, first season sires such as Coolmore’s Australia are also bound to attract plenty of interest and Lot 45, an elegant filly from Gestüt Westerberg by the sire, drew €110,000 from Peter Endres, joint-owner of Gestüt Auenquelle. She is the first foal out of Diamond Dove (Dr Fong), the Champion Two- Year-old Filly in Germany in 2013 after she took the Gr.3 Preis der Winterkönigin; she also ran with honour at three, coming second in the Gr.1 Preis der Diana and third in the Gr.2 German 1,000 Guineas. It is the family of Donaldson (), who took the Gr.1 Deutschlandpreis. Her new owner revealed her sire was a big influence in his decision: “I like Australia very much and it was that which really drew me too her. She is not too big, but I don’t mind that, I have had success with fillies like her before. She will go to Jens Hirschberger.” Holger Faust of the HFTB is the most active young agent in Tom Goff of Blandford Bloodstock, who was acting on Germany, often in connection with Darius Racing, and he made behalf of Godolphin to secure Lot 49 and Lot 191. two notable purchases for the syndicate, reinvesting some of the gains made from the sale of Farshad (Kendargent) to Hong mare in the US, the winner of two Gr.1s and two Gr.3s, and Kong. His most expensive purchase was Lot 217, a filly by Holy multiple Group-placed. Roberts commented: “I have bought him Roman Emperor consigned by Gestüt Etzean for a German-Irish for Irish bloodstock interests. He was a great walker and looks really partnership, for €180,000, seeing off Andreas Jacobs and Andreas tough. His sire obviously made him considerably more attractive, Löwe.

Dyanamore was Listed-placed in Italy and has produced four winners, including Listed-placed colts in Sweden and Germany. The third dam is also the grandam of Champion Older Horse Earl Of Tinsdal (Black Sam Bellamy). Faust said of both his purchases: “They will go into pre-training and then trainers will be decided.” Sea The Moon scored another hit when Peter Franceschini paid €100,000 to take a son of his (Lot 48) consigned by Jamie Railton to Italy for undisclosed clients. He is the third foal out of the Listed winner Enjoy The Life (Medicean), who has started her paddocks career with a bang, as her first foal, Enjoy Vijay (Nathaniel), has come second in the Gr.1 Deutsches Derby and Gr.3 Bavarian Classic amongst other places this year. Retired international footballer Klaus Allofs has become a successful owner, sometimes in partnership with Gestüt Fährhof, with such as Wake Forest (Sir Percy) and Potemkin (New Approach), and he paid €140,000 for a filly by Mastercraftsman from the renowned stud, Lot 52. She is the first foal out of the Listed winner Goiania (Oasis Dream), herself the daughter of Goathemala (Black Sam Bellamy), winner of the Gr.3 Düssledorf Stutenpreis and dam as well of Wolf Country (Dubawi), winner of the Listed Prix de l’Avre this year. Agent Richard Venn also acts as representative for the BBAG in Britain and a conversation with James Stewart of Wellsummers Stud in Wiltshire had a happy outcome. The latter’s options for selling what became Lot 120 here did not look too inviting at home and Venn suggested he should bring the son of Sea The Moon to Baden. This he did, consigning him through Gestüt Westerberg, continuing a good day for Aline and Peter Rodde’s stud high above the Rhine, as he fetched €140,000 to a bid from Hans Bierkämper, who runs horses under the nomme de course Stall Mandarin, named after the hotel in Bangkok.

He is out of the three-time winner Saratina (Monsun), who had not previously left the Beerfelden Stud for quite a while, understandably too, as she has done very well with its resident stallions, producing Sirius to Dashing Blade, winner of the Gr.1 Grosser Preis von Berlin, and Gr.2-placed San Salvador and Gr.3-placed Saratino to Lord Of England.

Her dam Wednesday, Sword Roche (Laroche) won the Austrian Oaks and was second in the Gr.2 (then) Deutsches St Leger. The general impression amongst vendors was that the market 6 September was very selective, perhaps more so than ever, with a real battle to sell in the middle market, not an uncommon comment anywhere nowadays, but applicable here especially, with a shortage of 20 lots selling home owners. The shape of the race programme and the other usual reasons for this are well rehearsed, but another difficulty is from 10.00am one with the tax authorities, which, for example, are very unfriendly to syndicates, often taxing their winnings without allowing expenses. A case about this is also progressing through A quality group of colts and the courts. Assistant manager Klaus Eulenberger commented: “We made geldings including winners great gains last year and to have got very close with the average this Kerosin, Scots Piper, year and equalling a very high top price is pleasing. With one or two imminent private sales we will be very close. The percentage sold is a Town Charter, White Tower bit down, but that reflects some high reserves early on, which became and Youmkin. more realistic after a couple of hours. One does have to remember we have a large number of owner/ breeders still in Germany and that our BBAG races are valuable, so some people are inclined to defend Unraced colts and geldings by their horses strongly.” top stallions New Approach, Street Cry, Teofilo, Pivotal, Shamardal and Lonhro.

Scarpellini explains: “We mated Icebreaking [by Elusive City], a Classic-placed half-sister to Kaspersky, to Footstepsinthesand with the goal to repeat the cross. The outcome is very good, the colt is a dark bay who looks built in the same mould as Kaspersky. He is a February foal, very athletic.” The colt, catalogued as Lot 36 is from the successful family of Crodas-Crenelle, that returned Classic winners and top-class performers in Italy for Andrea Scarpellini and Cristian Demuro with Noble Hachy more than 40 years.
