"It is a very active family and she suits us physically – she is a fine mare and we have a breeding rights in some strong bodied stallions. We have not got a stallion in mind yet, we'll probably discuss in the horse box on the way home!"

“Annual turnover a fraction below last year’s wide margin record of 331 million guineas, as well as record Tattersalls October Yearling and December Foal Sales are genuinely positive statistics to reflect upon, not only for Tattersalls, but also for the wider industry.

"Equally positive has been the sustained global demand we have experienced throughout a December Mares Sale which has provided a highly successful conclusion to the 2018 Tattersalls sales season and enhanced its reputation as probably the world’s most international breeding stock sale.

“There have been numerous highlights in 2018, most notably market leaders in every category, including Europe’s highest-priced Breeze Up two-year-old, the world’s highest-priced yearling, Europe’s highest-priced broodmare and horse-in-training and the 16 highest-priced foals in Britain and Ireland, but the feature that has dominated the Tattersalls sales season has been the unrelenting demand for the best thoroughbreds to be found in Europe, if not the world.

"The upper sector of the market has been truly vibrant in all categories and the abiding memory from this week has been the extraordinary competition for the outstanding fillies and broodmares which lit up the sale on Tuesday evening.

“We were conscious that the catalogue perhaps lacked the depth of the record-breaking 2017 renewal which featured the Ballymacoll Dispersal and the likes of Marsha and Zhukova, but Tuesday’s sale all but matched last year’s spectacular levels, with buyers from every continent in the world all making a significant contribution to a truly memorable session.

"In addition to the seven fillies and mares selling for 1 million guineas or more, we had 22 break the 500,000 guineas mark, second only to last year’s record number, and an unprecedented 79 and 147 lots selling for 200,000 guineas and 100,000 guineas or more.

“The huge number of overseas buyers has been particularly encouraging for all concerned with the top 20 lots selling to buyers from Britain, Ireland, China, Dubai, France, Japan, Kuwait and the USA, while a strong Australian and New Zealand contingent also made its presence felt.

"Equally gratifying has been the participation of buyers at all levels of the market from throughout the Gulf region as well as Germany, India, Morocco, Spain, Sweden, Turkey and Uzbekistan, all of whom have clearly demonstrated the unwavering demand for quality European bloodstock and contributed to the best December Sale clearance rate this century.

“Tribute, as ever, must also be paid to the vendors who have brought some outstanding fillies and mares to the sale. It is their support which makes the Tattersalls December Sale an unmissable annual event for so many international buyers and it has been wonderful to see not only British and Irish breeders rewarded, but also their French, German and Italian counterparts who also recognise the Tattersalls December Sale as the premier sale of its type in Europe."

Rarted 97 at her best, she is out of a Listed placed Barathea half-sister to Finsceal Beo, the champion European two-year-old filly in 2006 and champion older mare in Ireland in 2008. She won three Group 1 races including the 1,000 Guineas in both England and Ireland.

"I expect she will go off and be covered this spring," said Ferguson (18:21)

The bay three-year-old filly is the first foal out of the Group 1 Falmouth Stakes winner Timepiece. She is an own-sister to the Group 1 winner Passage Of Time, the dam of Time Test, a Grade 1 runner-up, and to Father Time, the Group 2 King Edward VII Stakes hero.

"She is a lovely filly and from a very good family," said Gunther, who was standing with his daughter Tanya, who signed for the new acquisition.

"There are also a couple of Dubawi younger siblings to run for the mare [a 2017 filly and a 2018 colt], which was important to us they could add again to the pedigree."

Gunther, who was standing in the bidders' area by the sale ring exit, added: "I have had luck before buying from Juddmonte - Without Parole is from a Juddmonte family and I said this morning that I was not going to leave town today without buying one from Juddmonte!

"I stood in this spot when I bought Posset - it has been lucky."

This year's Galileo yearling out of Posset was sold to Stroud Coleman Bloodstock for 1,100,000gns. She was consigned by Newsells Park Stud, and Weekday is to join Posset at the Hertfordshire-based stud farm.

"I would love to send her to Kingman - I think the cross will really work," added the breeder, who enjoyed Triple Crown success in the US this year courtesy of Justify, as well as Royal Ascot glory thanks to Without Parole's St James's Palace Stakes (G1) win.

"You dream of winning the Kentucky Derby," smiled Gunther, "and then you win the Triple Crown – I think I am only just believing it!

"But to win at Royal Ascot, and then to be presented the trophy by Prince Harry and Meghan, well that really was the best day of my life." (18:08)

There are just two dams on the catalogue page - the second being the amazing broodmare Hasili, the dam of Intercontinental, Cacique, Champs Elysees, Banks Hill and Dansili.

The dam of Supporter is Very Good News (Empire Maker) and she is the dam of one winner from two runners – Weekender being a Listed and Group 1 placed colt by Frankel.

Hesmonds Stud was bought by Bizakov in 2010.

"Hesmonds is a young farm for Nurlan and he is building up a strong broodmare band," said Varian. "It is a fantastic farm and is just starting to be successful in Nurlan's ownership.

"Nurlan has had a good year with some nice horses, especially some two-year-olds who could have Classic campaigns next year – for instance, Tauteke, a daughter of Sea The Stars who won her novice race at Chelmsford last week, while Qazyna is a daughter of Frankel who won a Listed race on her last start for us this year.

"She is a three-year-old and will stay in training at four – she is a big filly and should only improve."

Bizakov, who has around 20 horses in training with Varian, also enjoyed Group 1 form in 2018 with Altyn Orda, who finished second in the Falmouth Stakes and third in the Sun Chariot Stakes. She has been retired and has joined the broodmare band at Hesmonds. (17:48)

"The family is only going to get better and better, hopefully there will be plenty of updates to come - it just such a lovely page. We have not made any plans yet."

The filly is the first foal out of the young mare Hot Snap (Pivotal), winner of the Nell Gwyn Stakes (G2).

She is a daughter of Midsummer, the dam of the wonderful race mare and champion Midday, and the family includes such names as Elmaamul and Reams Of Verse.

Hot Snap has a 2016 colt by Frankel, a 2018 filly by Galileo and she was covered by Invincible Spirit this spring. (17:25)
