Top-Class Yearlings from Goffs and Fairyhouse
We had a successful couple of sales in Ireland, purchasing a total of seven yearlings for clients at Goffs and Fairyhouse. They are a great group, with pedigrees to match their outstanding physicals.
Among the purchases, include a gorgeous-looking half-sister to G3 winner MULAQAT by Teofilo, an Animal Kingdom colt that is out of an own-sister to G1 winner TALISMANIC and an Australia filly out of G2 winner KITTY MATCHAM from the family of Champion IMAGINE, these three are heading for trainer Jamie Osborne.
For trainer Hugo Palmer, there is strong Night of Thunder colt from the family of Champions CRYSTAL HOUSE and CRISALLINE, an Australia filly from the family of Dubai World Cup (G1) winner ALMUTAWAKEL and a cracking Camacho colt out of an own-sister to G1 winner CREACHADOIR.
There is also a very athletic Camelot colt that is a half-brother to G3 winner BALTY BOYS that is heading to trainer Richard Hughes.
The sales’ season moves on to Newmarket this coming week where Avenue Bloodstock will be looking to purchase additional top-class bloodstock at Tattersalls.
