Graham Smith-Bernal last week bought out partners Gestut Ammerland to purchase the sale-topping Waldlied for 2.2-million gns at Tattersalls, with Ammerland the underbidder. Ammerland would not be defeated for Waldlied's three-quarter sister Wildfeder (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) (lot 188) at Arqana on Saturday, however, going to €2.05-million to own the winning 3-year-old outright and dissolve the partnership with Smith-Bernal's Newsells Park Stud. Wildfeder and Waldlied are out of Waldlerche, and therefore Wildfeder is a full-sister to the Arc winner Waldgeist.
