Lone Eagle (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), beaten a neck into second by Hurricane Lane (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) in the 2021 G1 Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby, will be offered on the Goffs Online platform in a timed auction Nov. 21 and 22.
A 500,000gns Tattersalls October yearling, the son of the stakes-winning and American Grade III-placed Modernstone (GB) (Duke of Marmalade {Ire}) won three of his four starts at two, including the G3 Zetland S. for trainer Martyn Meade and had future US champion and GI Breeders' Cup Turf hero Yibir (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) four lengths behind when taking out the Listed Cocked Hat S. at Goodwood last year. He was an 11-2 chance with Frankie Dettori aboard for the Curragh feature and just missed while finishing well clear of the third. Lone Eagle has been stakes-placed in three runs this term for Freddie and Martyn Meade.
