“More than 1,500 yearlings have been sold at Tattersalls in the course of the past two weeks, to swathes of eager buyers from literally all corners of the world and we should take this opportunity to thank every single participant for their contribution to another successful Tattersalls October Yearling Sale.

“Every year the October Yearling Sale showcases the cream of the European yearling crop and we must recognise that it is the support of the breeders and consignors from Britain, Ireland, France, Germany and further afield which shapes this fixture.

"They provide the quality yearlings which give us the platform to promote the October Yearling Sale and to attract the buyers at all levels of the market in such impressive numbers.

“It is, of course, important to reflect on the spectacular highlights of Books 1 and 2, which between them contributed more than 150 million guineas to the total turnover just shy of 160 million guineas, but it is equally satisfying to be able to take positives from Book 3.

"The sale achieved a record price of 145,000 guineas for a Book 3 filly, some great pinhooking successes and real competition at all levels. The British and Irish were joined by a diverse overseas contingent and it has been rewarding to see buyers from countries such as the Czech Republic, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Poland and Serbia alongside those from the traditional overseas markets.

"We work hard in these areas and the overseas buyers have all made a significant contribution to the sustained demand throughout Book 3 and the solid clearance rate of 81%.

"There are so many outside political and economic forces at play which could be expected to undermine our bloodstock market, but the past two weeks at Tattersalls have given everyone involved cause to be proud of what this industry has to offer." (12:00)

She is a daughter of the Summer Stakes (G3) winner Our Faye (College Chapel), the dam of three winners (12:50)

"He is nice type, and by Cable Bay who has done well with his first crop," said Burke, who will have 35 to breeze next spring.

Bred and sold by Rosyground Stud, the colt is out of the Bahamian Bounty mare Local Fancy and is a half-brother to six winners. Kyleakin Lass, by Kyllachy, achieved a career-best rating of 96. (12:35)

"We liked him, we will take our time with him. he goes into training with Mike Murphy and he will be owned by Lewis and Mark Rickets," said the successful purchaser.

The colt is a half-brother to three winners, all the runners for the mare so far. The trio are all rated over 70. (12:17)

"He is nice mover, by a sire who has done well and has a good pedigree," said the buyer.

The colt is a half-brother to five winners and a grand-son of the 1,000 Guineas runner-up Bint Shadyid. (12:14)

She is from a family the pair know well – they bought her Compton Place half-brother for £11,000 at the Tattersalls Ascot September Yearling Sale 2017 and sold her at the Tattersalls Guineas Breeze-Up for 30,000gns. Amanda Perrett bought him – now named Tinto, he is now a five-time winner from 25 starts and is rated 100.

"This filly like him has a very good temperament," said Martins. "She is a nice model and is more racey than her half-brother." (11:07)

He was absent today, but John Beckitt was in charge of purchasing: "He is a nice colt, with a pedigree and goes to Ron who will have half a dozen or so two-year-olds for next year."

The colt was sold by Houghton Bloodstock. (10:38)

Murphy had a bit of luck this summer with Shared Ambition – his three-year-old by Born To Sea won twice in Ireland and was subsequently bought to go to Australia. He was already won twice in his new homeland.

"We have to be sellers now," said Murphy. "We can't survive on training fees. I have bought ten this week, some for owners but also a few to look to trade on too."

He purchased with the help of agent Matt Coleman.

"I thought this horse was the nicest today – he has lots of quality, he is a super model with a strong back pedigree, and the half-brother now has a black-type update," said Coleman.

The colt is out of Marah Dubai (Dubawi), a half-sister to the Group 1 winner Belle Et Celebre, the Group 2 winner Whortleberry, the Group 3 winner Valentino, Appel Au Maitre, a former champion two and three-year-old colt in Scandinavia, as well as to Ysoldina, the dam of the Derby (G1) winner Wings Of Eagles.

He was sold by Acorn Stud for Arth-Mon House, bred by Artur Smigielski. (18:12)

the colt was bred and sold by Ashbrittle Stud and is out of the unraced Medaglia D'Oro mare Mambo Gold. (18:03)

He is a grand-dam of the 100-rated La Bandera and from the family of La Colorada, a champion two-year-old in Germany, and Lomitas, a champion three-year-old in Germany. (17:06)

He is a half-brother to ten winners, including the Molecomb Stakes runner-up Mary Read, the grand-dam of the star sprinter Kachy, and to Tiana. She is the dam of Beat The Bank, the five-time Group 2 winner.

She is a half-sister to three winners, and a grand-daughter of Shadow Dancing (Unfuwain).

Bred by Major Hern and Willie Carson, she won the Cheshire Oaks (L) and was placed second in the Ribblesdale Stakes (G2), the Prix de Pomone (G2) and third in the Oaks (G1). (16:17)

"She is for a Dubai-based client of my sister's," said Kelleway. "She looks a real two-year-old type, a lovely filly with a pedigree. She will be trained in the UK but not with me.

"The half-brother won well at Bath earlier this week and looks a nice type."

The filly was bred and sold by Bearstone Stud.

Stud owner Terry Holdcroft said: "We bought the mare in 2014 and she has a Profitable filly foal and was covered by Oasis Dream. The win by the half-brother certainly helped with this sale."

The filly's second dam is the good race horse, the Listed sprinter Palace Affair, dam of the Listed winner Queen's Grace. Third dam is Palace Street, dam of Sakhee's Secret, Palace Moon and King's Caprice.

It has been a good fortnight for Bearstone: a top-price of 150,000gns in Book 2 of an Acclamation colt (Lot 950), and a great race result on Arc day – the homebred and owned Glass Slippers winning the Group 1 Prix de l'Abbaye. (15:17)

The chestnut filly is out of the Dancing Duchess, placed third in a Listed race. She is dam of five winners, including Lady Beware, a full-sister to this filly and third in the Del Mar Juvenile Stakes (L) (14:50)

He is the second foal out of the young Bahamian Bounty mare Blossom Mills. She is a half-sister to Air Pilot, winner of eight races, including the Group 2 Prix d'Harcourt (G2), and four further races at Group 3 level. (13:31)

The farm is based in County Antrim and is a real family affair – run by father Trevor, he and son Chris picked out the colt together as foal, daughter Tara led up today.

"Chris picked him out," said Armstrong. "He could not be here today – he works in the office at Ballydoyle, hopefully he as been watching!"

"This colt was a nice, scopey foal and he has done well. Dalakhani is a top broodmare sire and Night Of Thunder has been on fire, too."

"He is a lovely, sweet horse, but can be a bit cheeky," added Tara of the athletic colt, bought by John Hassett as a breeze-up prospect.

"I've bought two yearlings out of Dalakhani mares before," said Hassett. "One went from 30,000gns to 200,000gns and the other went from 29,000gns to 160,000gns, so Dalakhani mares were my own little niche, until Pinatubo came along!

"He's by the right sire, too, and I just think he looks like a quick horse. He'll go to whichever sale fits in best with his preparation, I don't make those calls until just before the catalogues come out. I like to see how they're going first.

"It's been very difficult buying this week, the market is very strong, which is great – I hope all these buyers come back to the breeze-ups!

"Book 2 was exceptionally strong, the middle day there was maybe the strongest ever. It's a solid and very discerning market."

The five by Night Of Thunder sold so far through Book 3 are averaging 35,400gns. (13:23)
