The Arqana Summer Sale, which starts its two-day run on June 30, now has a total of 18 wildcard entries after a further seven late additions were announced on Tuesday.
The 4-year-old filly Historique Reconce (Fr) (Lauro {Ger}), a half-sister to the multiple Grade 1-winning steeplechaser Chacun Pour Soi (Fr) (Policy Maker {GB}), is to be sold as a broodmare prospect as lot 327 from the stable of Emmanuel Clayeux.
The remaining sextet are all horses in training, including the Edouard Monfort-trained Parmenion (Ger) (Soldier Hollow {GB}), a winner on debut earlier this season over 2,400m who will be sold at lot 490.
The dual winner Pomahaka (Fr) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) (lot 504) will make his way north to Deauville from Christophe Ferland's stable at La Teste de Buch. The 3-year-old colt is a half-brother to G2 Prix du Muguet winner Don Bosco (Fr) (Barathea {Ire}).
Extra jumping stock will be supplied to the mixed sale by three entrants from the stable of leading French National Hunt trainer Francois Nicolle, including Epic Tale (Fr) (Doctor Dino {Fr}) (lot 527), a winning 4-year-old hurdler who is from the family of the classy jumper A Plus Tard (Fr) (Kapgarde {Fr}). Also among the young jumpers on offer is 4-year-old Hititi (Fr) (Great Pretender {Ire}) (lot 505), the winner of an AQPS bumper in May for owner/trainer Hugo Merienne.
