Sea The Sky (Ger) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), a full-sister to wide-margin G1 Deutsches Derby winner and Lanwades Stud stallion Sea The Moon (Ger), sold for €820,000 at Germany's BBAG Yearling Sale to Dietrich Von Boetticher's Gestut Ammerland.
Offered as lot 61 by her breeders Heike Bischoff and Niko Lafrentz of Gestut Gorlsdorf, the February-born filly is out of Sanwa (Ger) (Monsun {Ger}), herself a full-sister to the German Classic-winning trio of Samum (Ger), Schiaparelli (Ger) and Salve Regina (Ger).
Sea The Sky's price equalled the record for the sale set last year by another daughter of Sea The Stars bred on the same cross, out of the Gestut Brummerhof-owned Monsun mare Anna Mia (Ger) and bought by Godolphin.
A full report from the BBAG Yearling Sale will be published later today.
