Lot 835: Stuart Boman plays his cards late spending 100,000gns on Morning Sun (Muhaarar), a winner of his last two starts for trainer Keith Dalgleish.

It is the second time the gelding has been sold at a Tattersalls horses-in-training sale – he was consigned by Freemason Lodge at 2022 Autumn HIT Sale when bought Durcan Bloodstock for 50,000gns.

Today's purchaser was buying on behalf of Australian-based trainer Annabel Neasham – Boman and the trainer having enjoyed plenty of success together with Tattersalls graduates, especially with Zaaki, the winner of five Group 1s in Australia.

The son of Leroidesanimaux was a 150,000gns purchase at the 2020 Tattersalls Autumn HIT Sale.

"Morning Sun is a progressive sort and is a type that Annabel does so well with," said Boman. "I have followed him since he was sold at the Autumn HIT Sale last year and have liked what I have seen. Keith Dalgleish is stopping training, and the horse would probably have been one he would not have let go otherwise." (21:00)

Lot 820 and Lot 822: two successive late lots from Park House Stables (A. Balding) are due to join the dual-purpose trainer Milton Harris, who does so well with Flat graduates when sending them hurdling.

Lot 820, Juan Bermudez by Nathaniel and the winner of one, cost the trainer, who signed under the Avon Racing banner, 25,000gns, while Galactic Jack (Lot 822), a two-time-winning son of Galileo out of the talented Champs Elysees mare Jack Naylor, was the more expensive of the duo at 50,000gns.He was signed for by owner Mark Adams. (20:38)

Lot 772: from this year's Juddmonte draft, Jerry McGrath Bloodstock gives 100,000gns for the two-year-old winner Tiverton, a three-year-old son of Expert Eye trained by Dermot Weld.

"He is going to the US and has been bought for an owner," reported the buyer. "As a young man I worked for Dermot Weld, I have a few contacts there still and they told me how highly this horse was regarded, particularly as a two-year-old."

Tiverton won his juvenile maiden on his third start, and finished in mid-division as a two-year-old in the Killavullan Stakes (G3). He has only run twice at three. (19:24)

Lot 763: the progressive Whiskey On The Hill is sold by Ado McGuinness's Skylark House Stables for 135,000gns.

The docket was signed by Armando Duarte on behalf of agent Paul Moroney and the southern hemisphere-based Ballymore Stables.

The three-year-old son of Ribchester won his third start in succession last time out when taking a 47-75 1m4f handicap at Roscommon off a mark of 76. He is now rated 83.

"This is the only horse we looked at, we liked him and he fitted our profile," said Duarte. "He will head straight to Australia on the next shipment. He is very similar to a Juddmonte horse we bought a few years ago called Emissary [Lot 1126, Autumn HIT Sale 2020]. Let's hope he is lucky for them."

Emissary certainly went on to make a mark Down Under – he won the Group 3 Geelong Cup and was runner-up in 2022 Group 1 Melbourne Cup.

Ballymore has training yards in Flemington, Australia, and Matamata in New Zealand. (19:03)

Lot 744: Bahrain-based trainer Ali Majeed, caught on camera earlier today dancing at Newmarket after HH Sheikh Sultan's Al Mohamediya Racing-owned Jasour won the Kingdom Of Bahrain July Stakes (G2), had further reason to celebrate today after successfully buying Vega Sicilia (Lope De Vega) to train in Bahrain.

"It has been a special day for us!" he smiled when speaking on behalf of HH Sultan Aldeen MS Al-Khalifa . "We wish all days were like this day! We won the Group race and have bought six horses and now this horse, and he looks a good horse. He won well last time, the jockey was very impressed. He will go to Bahrain for the Classic race, he is a 1m4f horse."

The four-year-old Vega Sicilian, trained by Harry and Roger Charlton and sold today by Barton Sales for 125,000gns, won last time at Goodwood over 1m4f and off a BHA mark of 86. He is now rated 91. (18:20)

Lot 682: "She has been bought for Carisbrooke Stud and Yvonne Jacques," reported Cathy Grassick after spending 95,000gns on Immortal Beauty (Cotai Glory). "Yvonne is always in the market for a well-bred filly and she was looking for something that could be very commercial."

Grassick added: "This filly has an outstanding physical, an outstanding pedigree. We will get her home to the farm, give her a couple of weeks and make a plan from there. There is a very obvious stallion on the pedigree, but we will get to know her a bit before making plans. There is a bit of time before the breeding season starts.

"It is such a fast commercial and that is what we were just really looking to add, some of that two-year-old speed. She has Group 3 two-year-old form and I think she was some value and you always want to try and buy value when you can."

After winning a 0-85 juvenile over 7f last August, the daughter of Cotai Glory took fourth place in the Group 3 6f Dick Poole Stakes at Salisbury.

She is out of the Invincible Spirit mare Invincible Me, the dam of four winners from five runners, including Mehmento (Mehmas), winner of the Surrey Stakes (L) and second in the Greenham Stakes (G3).

Second dam Megec Blis took third in the Athasi Stakes (G3), and under the third dam is the three-time Group 1 winner Charm Spirit and the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches (G1) winner Dream And Go.

The family extends to the Group 1 winner and Deutsches Derby (G1) runner-up Ransom O'War (12:35)

Lot 690: rookie Italian trainer Pierantionio Convertino adds to his string of 15 with Starnberg (Clodovil), buying with agent Alessandro Marconi.

"He has been bought for a syndicate to race in Italy and the Middle East," said ex-jockey Convertino who has spent time in Bahrain and Qatar. "His profile will suit the Middle East and he goes on fast ground. He has a good rating."

Starberg is the winner of two – the three-year-old gelding having won two races in succession in the spring, his BHA rating increasing from 77 to 97. He subsequently ran down the field in the Britannia Stakes at Royal Ascot and then finished second in a 0-100 handicap at Chester on July 1.

Convertino has trained 20 winners this season. (12:19)

Lot 685: Alastair Donald of Sackville Donald bids to 105,000gns for The Parent, a three-year-old colt by Frankel and offered by East Everleigh Stables and the property of Godolphin.

"He is for a Bahrain-based client and goes to Bahrain for the Turf series," reported Donald. "He was the only horse we wanted, he should be perfect for the series. He is a fast ground horse, a cracking looking horse, and he is bred to be good. I am very pleased to get him.

"I don't think he stayed the trip on his last run and the form of his other runs looks very strong. He should do well in Bahrain and will be trained by Alan Smith."

The Parent is the first foal out of the Group 1 Gamely Stakes winner Sophie P (Bushranger). He won as a juvenile over a mile in 2022 and has twice finished third this year over a mile and 1m1f. Rated 82, he finished down the field when tried over 1m2f last time at Newmarket. (11:59)

Lot 652, Lot 653 and Lot 654: a draft offered by Jamie Railton generates plenty of interest – Scottish Dancer (Lot 652) by Highland Reel and from the Keith Dalgleish yard makes 39,000gns bought by D P O'Dwyer Bloodstock / Ashgrove Stables, Savanna King (Roaring Lion), listed as Lot 653 and owned by Qatar Racing, fetches 60,000gns bought by Trevor Milner, and Serengeti Sunset (Lot 654) makes 55,000gns.

Also by Roaring Lion and owned by Qatar Racing with Cambridge Stud, he has been bought by Qatar top ten trainer Hamad al-Jehani for Nasser Aldehani to race on in Qatar.

Al-Jehani said: "He has a good pedigree, he will like the fast ground and I think it will suit being in a smaller stable."

Serengeti Sunset's second dam is the Fillies' Mile (G1) winner Simply Perfect, dam of the Criterium International (G1) winner Proud And Regal, the Group 3 winner Mekong River and the Group 3 runner-up Simply Beautiful. (11:20)

Lot 629: John Ferguson's Natalma Bloodstock goes to 60,000gns on Fakhra.

The filly by Zoustar was sold by East Everleigh Stables (R. Hannon) for Al Shaqab Racing. She is out of Felissa (Soldier Hollow), a winning half-sister to the Group 3 winner Felicity and dam of the Group 2 winner and multiple Group race winner and placed Felician (Motivator).

Felissa is also a half-sister to the Listed-placed Fashion, dam of Zoustyle, the Listed-winning and Group 1 third-placed daughter of Zoustar.

Fakhra has run three times since the catalogue was published to finish second on her first two starts and then fourth at Windsor on July 1. She has been given an official handicap rating of 71. (10:29)

Lot 619: Balalaika, who finished third in the Sandringham Stakes at Royal Ascot, is sold for 330,000gns.

Bids for the daughter of No Nay Never, bred by the late Sir Robert Ogden and owned by Lady Ogden, flew around the sales ring, the interested parties including Gavin Hernon, Matt Coleman, and Mark McStay, but the action developed into a two-way battle between Eamonn Reilly of BBA Ireland, standing in his usual place by the back wall, and Richard Brown of Blandford Bloodstock, who was in his regular spot on the short stairs.

The two traded blows from the 250,000gns mark, right through to 330,000gns, which saw the Irish agent successful.

"She is for an existing client," said Reilly. "There are no plans, but she will stay in training and although no trainer has been decided she will probably stay in the UK. Her last run was very promising, and she has been brought as a long-term broodmare prospect for the client.

"She is good topped filly, has a good walk and behaved very well up here. There is plenty happening with the pedigree."

That pedigree action includes Bluestocking (Camelot), who also finished third at Royal Ascot collecting first Group race black-type with her placing in the Ribblesdale Stakes (G3) on just her third start. She has Group 1 entries in the Irish Oaks and the Yorkshire Oaks.

Balalaika is out of the unraced Frankel mare War And Peace, a half-sister to Bluestocking, the pair out of Emulous (Dansili), winner of the Matron Stakes (G1). (10:21)

Lot 557: Bobby Jackson of Tattersalls, bidding on behalf of leading Qatari owner Abdulatif Hussain Al-Emadi, goes to 150,000gns for Captain Winters.

The three-year-old colt by Lope De Vega was offered by Kevin Ryan's Hambleton Lodge Stables for Godolphin, and was a winner of the Listed Heron Stakes at Sandown in May and ran in the Hampton Court Stakes (G3) at Royal Ascot last time out. He is BHA rated 104.

The colt will be trained in Qatar by Badar Albalushi, who said: "He is a good horse, he is a Listed race winner. He likes the fast ground, which he will race on in Qatar, and he has form over a mile so there will be plenty of options for him, too."

Captain Winters is the most expensive horse bought so far in the ring by Jackson. (16:52)

Lot 528: Keith William Bell / Elton Racing came with one horse in mind and they got him – the team spending 170,000gns on Maasai Mara, a son of Roaring Lion, a winner over 1m2f and 1m3f.

The three-year-old has been bought with a hurdling campaign in mind and trainer John O'Shea of Elton Racing and sat with Bell explained plans: "Keith is my landlord and has been for 27 years. Although I mainly train on the Flat now, Keith is a jumping man and he has had over 100 winners. We have been looking for a new horse for him over 12 months and this is the only one we picked out here."

Explaining the reasoning behind the purchase, O'Shea said: "He ticks a lot of boxes, he gets decent trip, he is a nice looking horse, he goes on soft ground, and he is highly rated. He won't run again on the Flat, we will wait now and get him schooled for a hurdles campaign in the autumn."

Massai Mara is rated 86, has been in training with John and Thady Gosden for Qatar Racing. He has run eight times and won twice, his last success coming off a BHA mark of 83.

He is out of the Hurricane Run mare Wekeela, winner of the Prix Chloe (G3) and the Matchmaker Stakes (G3) and a three-time Group and Grade 1 runner-up. (15:54)

Lot 516B: wild card entry also catches the buyers' eyes and I Am Invictus (Cotai Glory-Asrafairy (Zebedee)) offered by The Castlebridge Consignment is bought by KGS for 150,000gns.

Khalid Sallami said: "He vetted well, and he is clean, and everything is fine with him. The horse is strong, has good strong form, he has speed and is still only a two-year-old. Hopefully, he will be a champion in Dubai.

"We might try the Dubai Derby, whether he will get the mile, but I am sure he will be a good horse over spring trips. He will be trained by Doug Watson."

Am Invictus already has Group race form to his name – he finished fourth in the Railway Stakes (G2) on last time out, just his third racecourse start. (15:51)

Lot 516A : wild card entry Ethical Diamond is today's new top lot, the son of Awtaad bought by Harold Kirk and WP Mullins for 320,000gns.

The three-year-old was offered by Baroda Stud for the owner Emma Kennedy, the gelding bred by William Kennedy. He has run three times, finishing fourth, third and winning last time out at Limerick in June over 1m4f on a yielding surface. He was trained by Michael William O'Meara.

Ethical Diamond is out of the broodmare Pearl Diamond (Areion, dam of Precious Boy, a multiple Group race winner in Germany and Group 1 runner-up in the Grosser Dalimayr Bayerisches Zuchtrennen (G1).

Kirk, who flew in to England this morning from a rainy Northern Ireland, said: "He is going to Willie Mullins for an existing client and to be a dual-purpose horse. He will run over hurdles and then head back on the Flat and be a good stayer. He is a 'new' horse, he has improved every run, he is gorgeous horse, he stays well and won very well last time and travels well. Hopefully, he will make up into a Cup horse on the Flat – take us one day to Royal Ascot and one day to Cheltenham!

"He was the one I came for, I can go home now! I knew we'd have big opposition from Australia and I think that is what happened. Australia can't get them all, and Willie likes taking horses to Australia!"

Kirk, who had just one bid, has not bought any before by Awtaad to go jumping and he said: "I can't see why he won't suit, the stallion is by Cape Cross, and this horse comes from a good German pedigree. He looks an athletic type, so I can't see any reason why he won't take to it, he just a beautiful individual.

"We are trying to build up a string of Melbourne Cup horses as well as jumpers. Even though we had the Royal Ascot winner this year, for a couple of years in Covid we missed buying a dual-purpose type of horse, and there has been a bit of a gap for that sort of horse at Willie's." (15:50)

Lot 509: Harappan is bought by Scottish trainer Iain Jardine with Compas Equine for owner Hal McGhie, the once-raced three-year-old gelding by Bayern a 150,000gns purchase.

"We are buying the potential, his first run was really good and he could be anything really, he looks a horse with a big future, he is a lovely individual," said Jardine, who added: "He vetted really well, too. We get him back home and assess him, but hopefully he will progress and be a real nice horse and we will get to a big place with him one day.

"Hal has had some real good horses over the years, just recently he has not had a superstar – they have been decent enough and he has been in the winners' enclosure plenty, but he wants a real good one."

Harappan's one run came when third at Newcastle in June over 1m2f for owner-breeder Newtownanner Stud. (15:40)

Lot 504: "That's a bit more than I usually spend!" laughed trainer Phil Kirby after bidding to 210,000gns for Anthem National. "We lost Farhan, owned by James Cookson and who we bought here, just before Royal Ascot. James wanted to replace him with a horse capable of getting to the nice days and give some good days out.

"This horse was recommended by Joseph [O'Brien], and he looks as though he can run over 5f, 6f and 7f, which gives us plenty of options. He only ran a few weeks ago so we will get him home, give him a couple of weeks break and then get him out again."

The gelding was bred by Noel O'Callaghan, buyer of Lot 155 yesterday, and as was stated yesterday, the O'Callaghan broodmare bend is mainly one of fast mares.

Anthem National is out of one of the leading mares at Mountarmstrong Stud – Anthem Alexander, winner of the Queen Mary Stakes (G2) runner-up in the Cheveley Park Stakes (G1) and third in the Commonwealth Cup (G1). She is a half-sister to Dandy Man.

Rated 106, he ran second last time out in the 6f Listed Jebel Ali Racecourse & Stables Dash Stakes, owned by O'Callaghan having been a vendor buy back as a yearling in Book 1.

Farhan was bought by Kirby for 150,000gns at the Autumn HIT Sale, and ran second in the Group 3 Dubai Duty Free Finest Surprise Stakes (Registered As The John Porter Stakes) fro Kirby and Cookson. (15:22)

Lot 449: Qatar-based trainer Gassim Ghazali, a regular visitor and buyer at Tattersalls, makes a second strike this week going to 100,000gns for Dubawi Spectre, consigned by Baroda Stud for Commontown Stables (Mrs J Harrington) and owner Zhang Yuesheng.

The three-year-old was a winner at Fairyhouse over 1m4f in June off a mark of 78, and subsequently finished sixth in the competitive Ulster Derby at Down Royal and then fourth in a 1m2f handicap at Roscommon from an improved rating of 84.

He is the second foal out of the young mare Spectre (Siyouni), who won the Prix Imprudence (G2) and finished second in the Prix Moulin (G1), third in the Prix Jean Prat (G1) and fourth in the Queen Anne Stakes (G1). (13:50)

Lot 443: the first to six figures today is last time winner Edward Cornelius (Bungle Inthejungle), a winner at Hamilton over 6f at the beginning of June for the retiring trainer Keith Dalgleish. He won off a BHA mark of 86 and is now rated 90.

He was bought by Bahrain-based trainer Ali Majeed, who said: "He has been bought to race in the Bahrain series – he is a four-year-old and will suit racing in Bahrain on the fast ground.

"Buying at the July Sales gives more time to prepare for the season that starts earlier on October 27, the October HIT Sale is a little too close."

The gelding, bought for 110,000gns by Majeed for owner Al Mohamediya Racing, has run 18 times, won three races and been placed eight times. (13:35)

Lot 319: NH trainer Milton Harris, signing as Avon Racing, goes to 30,000gns for Balboa, a three-year-old gelding consigned by Jamie Osborne's The Old Malthouse Stables.

The Mondialiste gelding has not won but finished a good fifth last week at Sandown in a 0-80 handicap over 1m6f.

The Racing Post analysis wrote: "Balboa, having just his second handicap start and first attempt at this trip, shaped with promise following a tardy start from his wide draw."

The gelding's pedigree indicates that he might be a good one to go jumping – under his third dam, Behera, the European champion three-year-old filly of 1989, is Behrajan, winner of the Tolworth Hurdle (G1), the Premier Long Distance Hurdle (G2) and third placed in the Stayers' Hurdle (G1), Barizan, winner of Punchestown's Champion Four Year Old Hurdle (G1) , and Pont Aven, runner-up in Punchestown's Guinness Handicap Chase (G1). (12:28)

Lot 353: all the jumping connections were in the ring to see Book Of Tales (Ribchester) sell, and it was Highflyer Bloodstock with trainer Charlie Longsdon who were successful at 30,000gns. The team out bid bloodstock agent Richard Venn.

The three-year-old, offered by Kingsley Park for Godolphin, has won twice since the catalogue was published – at Bath over 1m6f and then over 1m3f at Yarmouth. The current good form continuing he also finished second at the end of June back at Bath over 1m5f and off a mark of 68, his highest career mark to date.

The gelding, who hails from the top-class middle-distance Ballymacoll-developed family of the champions Islington and Greek Dance, has run 10 times and has won or finished in the first four placings on seven of those starts. (11:11)

Lot 308: Eagle Fang, a three-year-old gelding by Free Eagle and who has run once since the catalogue was published when fourth of sixth at Haydock, makes 55,000gns and is signed for by Durkan Bloodstock.

He was sold by Jamie Railton (agent) for owners Richard and Katherine Gilbert and was from the retiring trainer Keith Dalgleish. He is out of the Samum mare Scatina, winner of the Schwarzgold Rennen (G2), the dam of four winners and grand dam of the Group 3 winner See Hector (Counterattack). (09:49)

Lot 290: Wantoplantatree, a three-year-old colt by Iffraaj, is sold for 130,000gns. He has run twice and is out of the Motivator mare Madame Defarge, who finished third in the Pretty Polly Stakes (L). She is dam of two winners, including the six-time winner Land Of Oz (Australia), who was successful over distances from 1m6f to 2m2f.

It is the further family of the Gredley's champion three-year-old stayer User Friendly – the Group 1 winner of the St Leger, the Yorkshire Oaks, the Irish Oaks, the Oaks and the Grand Prix de Paris. (18:19)

Lot 262 and Lot 264: from the final draft from Godolphin, Joyful Heart (Lot 262) makes 190,000gns and Evening Hush (Lot 264) sells for 250,000gns.

By Shamardal, the three-year-old filly Joyful Heart is out of the Listed winner Floristry (Fasliyev), the dam of two black-type winners and from the family of the talented and Group 1 placed Carlton House. She was bought by Tom Goff of Blandford Bloodstock.

Evening Hush is another by Galileo bought by Michael Donohoe of BBA Ireland, who has bought four of the seven mares and fillies sold today by the former champion sire. The quartet have cost an average price of 291,250gns each for a total spend of 1,165,000gns.

The unraced three-year-old Evening Hush is out of the Dubawi mare Wuheida, winner of the Prix Marcel Boussac (G1) and the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf (G1). She was also four times Group 1 placed and is a daughter of the Group and Grade 1 winner Hibaayeb (Singspiel). (17:55)

Lot 212: becomes the new top lot – Sweet And Lovely, another daughter of Galileo is bought by Michael Donohoe under the BBA Ireland banner, the agent going to 350,000gns for the WH Bloodstock-consigned unraced mare.

"From the family that sold well early today [Lot 143], and it is a good looking, active happening family," said today's leading buyer. "She has a good cover to Wootton Bassett and he looks as though he is fulfilling the promise. She is carrying a colt and, if everything goes right, she might not be a bad investment – a nice yearling colt at the sales by him and we'd be in with a chance of getting the investment back in one go."

Of her next course of action, he said: "She will go to board at Baroda Stud, Ireland. We will foal her down and make a decision as regards stallions. She could go back to Wootton Bassett – the lads in Coolmore are really banking on the Wootton Bassett cross and John Magnier can certainly make these stallions! We will see what the foal looks like, but I wouldn't bank against her going back to him."

Sweet And Lovely is out of La Traviata (Johannesburg) and is an own-sister to the two-time Group 1 winner Seventh Heaven, dam of Over The Rainbow (Lot 143), and to Coat Of Arms, runner-up in the Futurity Stakes (G2) and fourth placed in the National Stakes (G1).

She is a half-sister to Crusade (Mr Greeley), winner of the Middle Park Stakes (G1), and to Cristoforo Colombo (Henrythenavigator), fourth placed in the Middle Park Stakes (G1). (16:34)

Lot 192: Different Light, an own-sister to the Grade 1 Belmont Derby Invitational Stakes winner and multiple Group-placed colt Deauville, is the second daughter of Galileo bought today by Michael Donohoe of BBA Ireland. She was the first this week to make over 300,000gns – the agent needed to go to 330,000gns to see off his bidding rivals.

"She is a good looking filly and it is a family I know well as I bought out of the family before and bought as sister for a good client in Cork," explained Donohoe. "The family gets good looking horses and she is typical."

He continued: "The client for this filly has mares in the southern and northern hemispheres, and we will pick a European stallion for her, possibly Baaeed or Siyouni. The Siyouni-Galileo cross has worked pretty well, and we also think that this mare and Baaeed could match well physically. I know it is a bit of an in-cross Baaeed, Galileo and Urban Sea, but Shadwell has been sending some Galileo mares to him.

"The probable choice will be Siyouni – he has achieved so much in particular this year – and then Baaeed. She is tall, there is plenty of size and scope to her, and she has good action. She will suit either stallion. "

Of immediate plans for the three-year-old, who has run twice in France and finished down the field in both starts, Donohoe said: "For the time being she will stay in Newmarket withCastlebridge, they look after the client's mares here."

She is out of the Grade 3 Pucker Up Stakes second-placed Walklikeanegyptian (Danehill), a three-quarter sister to three stakes horses by Danehill Dancer – Callwood Dancer, winner of the Nassau Stakes (G2) and placed second in the E P Taylor Stakes (G1), Contredanse, winner of the Oaks D'Italia (G2), and Set Sail/Cornish, placed third in the Juddmonte International Stakes (G1).

Lot 160: Sam Sangster Bloodstock goes to 220,000gns for Pomology (Arch), a 13-year-old mare sold by Godolphin. She is dam of Goldspur, a son of Dubawi, winner of the Zetland Stakes (G3), and third placed in the Criterium de Saint-Cloud (G1). He finished third in the Sandown Classic Trial (G3) the last time he was seen on a racecourse in 2022.

Pomology achieved plenty of her own black-type with victories in the Lancashire Oaks (G2) and the Prix Minerve (G2), and a second placing in the Prix Vermeille (G1).

"We thought she was the best mare on the property," reported Sangster. "She was a high class performer herself. I spoke to Charlie [Appleby] and he thinks a lot of Goldspur, and that he will be back racing soon. She has been bought for a syndicate and delighted to get her."

Of her future plans: "I will speak to the guys who are involved in her, but there are plenty of options for her." (15:14)

Lot 155: Divine Spirit was no slouch on the racecourse and after winning on her debut as a two-year-old she went onto collect second placings in the 5f Prix d'Arenberg (L) and the 5f Criterium de Vitesse (L). Matt Coleman of Stroud Coleman at Tattersalls was the successful bidder and he had to go to 220,000gns to secure the daughter of Kingman – it is the second time that he has bought her and the third time that Stroud Coleman has been involved in her purchase.

She is joining Noel O'Callaghan's broodmare band at Mountarmstrong Stud.

"I know the filly well – I bought her with Roger O'Callaghan to breeze, and then Anthony [Stroud] bought as a breezer for Godolphin," recalled Coleman. "She is a filly I have known for a while. She was a very good looking yearling and breezed very well, she was very fast,. I think she has a lot of Green Desert to her – she is medium sized, is a very good walker and is very strong. Her brother Manaccan has done fantastically well this year, and the pedigree has really exploded since she was bought as a yearling. It is a very happening pedigree."

He continued: "Noel likes this fast mares, he was keen to buy her – and I think there was a bit of family competition for her! She obviously suits what the O'Callaghan family are renown for breeding – fast horses. Fingers crossed she breeds some good foals for Noel. She had a good walk as a yearling and she has kept that walk."

She was sold in-foal to the four-time Group 1 winner Cracksman and Coleman added: "I think physically that covering would suit her – he is a very big horse and I can see why they did the mating as she is a neat, racy and very athletic filly. And, as we all know, Frankel and Galileo have done very well with fast mares! It could well work.

"But I would think that she would now be bred to some fast stallions moving forward – she does come from a speedy pedigree."

Dam Shyrl (Acclamation) was second in the Queen Mary Stakes (G2) and is dam of three black-type horses and two black-type winners – Manaccan (Exceed And Excel), winner of the Mercury Stakes (G3), two Listed races, and placed four times in black-type races, and Racuous. By Dream Ahead, he won the Hopeful Stakes (L), and was placed 21 times, including in the Gimcrack Stakes (G2), the Mill Reef Stakes (G2), the Bengough Stakes (G3) (twice), the Hackwood Stakes (G3) (twice) and the Listed Surrey Stakes. (15:01)

Lot 159: Whispering Romance has been signed for by Magnolia Mares, bloodstock agent Justin Casse in the ring and bidding for the daughter of Kingman offered from the Godolphin draft. She cost 220,000gns.

The one-time winner was offered in-foal to Teofilo on an April 3rd service, her first pregnancy. She is out of the Dream Ahead Listed-placed mare Sante, a daughter of the Listed winner Zieting and a half-sister to the Group 2 winner Combat Zone, the Group 3 winners Scottish and Royal Empire and the Group 3-placed pair of Bikini Babe and Zut Alors. It is the further family of the late Eqtidaar, winner of the Commonwealth Cup (G1), and the 2,000 Guineas runner-up Massaat.

Casse said: "She is a lovely mare, and I am looking forward to seeing her babies. She will probably be staying in Europe. She haas a good covering to a good solid covering sire. She is by a great sire in Kingman but, most importantly, she is a tremendous physical. I don't see her entering a sale again, her foals and yearlings will be sold in future." (14:47)

Lot 145: Michael Donohoe of BBA Ireland, sat at the top of the sales ring and by the rostrum, was the successful purchaser of Divinitus (Galileo) at 235,000gns. She was sold with a covering to the new young stallion Blackbeard, the first mare offered at Tattersalls with a covering to the dual Group 1 winner of the Prix Morny and the Middle Park Stakes.

"She is for an existing client," he said. "There are not many young Galileo mares any more. She is a good physical and she has an attractive early covering. There is plenty going on in the pedigree – the two-year-old was nice and he made £150,000 at this spring's breeze up. No plans have been made for her yet."

Divinitus is a first foal out of Realtra (Dark Angel), who won the Brownstown Stakes (G3), the Sceptre Stakes (G3), the Fairy Bridge Stakes (G3) as well as the Dick Hern Fillies Stakes (L) and the Prix Miss Satamixa (L).

She was offered for sale by The Castlebridge Consignment. (14:37)

Lot 143: Over The Rainbow, sold by The Castlebridge Consignment, fetches 270,000gns, is bought by Coolmara Stud. The mare was sold in-foal to St Mark's Basilica and she is out of the dual Oaks winner winner Seventh Heaven (Galileo).

It is a first foray into the Flat division by the farm, which has enjoyed great success with its NH stock at our Irish sales ground – at the recent Derby Sale it sold Lot 84, a gelding by Doctor Dino and out of Star Face, for €250,000, the second-best price at the sale.

Paul McGrath, the farm manager, was at Tattersalls today in charge of purchasing and said: "This is a new division for us, we have been talking about getting a Flat broodmare band up together for some time. We decided we'd make a dart this week. She was not easily bought and went for a bit more than we thought, but we are delighted to have her."

As with the 28 NH mares, the Mariga family of Coolmara is aiming for quality: "She is a foundation Flat broodmare, she has a good covering and she has a good pedigree – it s hard to get. we will make stallion plans once we have got the foal from here. We want to keep the quality up, and we will take it one step at a time as regards developing a Flat band of mares. We will be aiming to operate on a commercial basis.

Of plans for the rest of the day, McGrath is not expecting to be bidding again: "If she had come in under budget the maybe, but she made a bit more!"

The mare's three-year-old half-sister Boogie Woogie (Dubawi) recently finished second in Prix de Royaumont (G3) and has Group 1 entries this summer. (14:28)

Lot 110: Cavalier Bloodstock spends 65,000gns on the Full Regalia, who has run twice and finished fourth for John and Thady Gosden since the catalogue went to press.

A three-year-old daughter of Ulysses and a half-sister to Dark Lady (Dark Angel), winner of the Dick Poole Stakes (G3), she is out of the Listed winner Ladyship (Oasis Dream). She is the dam of four winners from four runners, including Audience (Iffraaj) winner of the Criterion Stakes (G3), his only start this year and his first stakes race success. (12:59)

Lot 72: Magical Circle, a two-year-old by Too Darn Hot and who has run once since the catalogue was published, makes 60,000gns and is bought by BBA Ireland.

She is out of Magical Fire (Dragon Pulse) who was a winner at two and placed second in the Duchess of Cambridge Stakes (G2). Magical Fire is a half-sister to Hawksmoor (Azamour), the winner of six races, including five Group and graded races – the New York Stakes (G2), the German 1000 Guineas (G2), the Prestige Stakes (G3), the Beaugay Stakes (G3), the Lambholm South Endeavour Stakes (G3).

Hawksmoor was also Group 1 placed in the Matriarch Stakes (G1), the First Lady Stakes (G1), the Fillies' Mile (G1), the Prix Saint-Alary (G1) and the Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup Stakes (G1). (11:40)
