Sales & Purchase | My Site 1

Acquiring a thoroughbred can be complex, with so many factors to consider. Whether it be

Foals to pinhook ( sell on as a yearling ) or to race.
Yearlings to race or prepare for the Breeze Up sales at 2yrs
A Breeze Up 2yr old to go into training
A horse from the Horses In Training sale with potential to progress.
A mare for breeding purposes.
A colt or Filly
A sprinter, middle distance or staying type.
Flat or National Hunt.
Your budget.

All these factors can have you in a spin and once you've decided on the route you want to take you then have to scan the catalogue and do your research in-order to find the suitable individual.

BELOW ARE SOME OF OUR SUCCESSFUL ACQUISITIONS AND ADVISORIES

Storyboard was acquired for new client from the Racing in Dubai sale after one run for A Fabre. He won easily on his Medan debut and followed that up in similar fashion next time.

Cranesbill was also purchased from the Racing in Dubai sale. Two runs in Ireland for W McCreery he became the most consistent horse regularly finishing in the prize money. He topped it off with a last to first victory at Jebel Ali a win he thoroughly deserved.

Shayem We purchased his dam Sounds of April as a 4yr old in foal to War Command for another new client, after 3 fillies she foaled Shayem a mating her owner can take full recognition for. A winner first time out he then finished third to the exceptional Bow Echo before winning at Epsom and gaining his listed win in the Tankard Stakes at Pontefract, after finishing second to the useful Title Role in the German 2000 Guineas only a matter of weeks later he claimed the Sir Henry Cecil Stakes in tremendous style at Newmarket.

Involved at the yearling selection this outstanding Sea The Moon colt Moment of Light went to the Breeze Up sales and fulfilled the promise with two wins at Kempton AW.

The imposing Omaha Beach colt Omaha Front was sold at the Breeze Ups. He was always going to be better with age and after an encouraging run at 2yrs he proved his potential with two comfortable wins at 3yrs.

Flying Comet by Havana Grey. A breeze Up graduate who continuously improved as a 2yr old culminating in two wins and an excellent 3rd in the Mill Reef Stakes behind the very useful Words of Truth. A 3yr old campaign in Meydan saw him gain revenge on Words of Truth when taking the Al Wasl Stakes.

A big 2yr old Fallacy by Blame was unsold at the Breeze Ups surprisingly as he clocked an identical time to the Omaha Beach colt on the day. He was one that just needed time and was always going to be better with age. The faith and patience placed in him was repaid handsomely when he easily accounted for his rivals by an emphatic 12 lengths on his third run as a 3yr old.
