The catalogue for the Tattersalls August Sale, set to take place on Friday, Sept. 1, is now online. A total of 343 lots–221 colts and geldings and 124 fillies in training, as well as six broodmares–will be part of the offerings from some of the world's leading consignors over the one-day auction.
Some of the more interesting lots include the 3-year-old Peking Opera (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) (lot 194) consigned by The Castlebridge Consignment. The Yeats S. winner, who is out of a full sister to the European Champion 2-year-old colt Air Force Blue (War Front), finished fourth in the G1 Irish Derby and third in the G3 Ballyroan S. this year. Also part of The Castlebridge consignment is Rhythm N Hooves (GB) (Pearl Secret {GB}) (lot 188), the winner of the Palace of Holyroodhouse S. at Royal Ascot; and French Claim (Fr) (French Fifteen {Fr}) (lot 195), the third-place finisher in last year's Irish Derby and most recently runner-up in the Listed Vintage Crop S. at Navan.
Some notable 2-year-olds slated to sell include recent Bellewstown maiden winner G'Day Mate (GB) (Havana Grey {GB}) (lot 253), Listed Premio Criterium Varesino S. winner Man With The Plan (Ire) (James Garfield {Ire}) (lot 254) and G2 Richmond S. runner-up Hala Emaraaty (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) (lot 153).
“The Tattersalls August Sale has quickly proven itself to be a popular fixture for both vendors and purchasers, having been introduced for the first time in 2020 in response to COVID-related circumstances,” Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony said. “We are delighted to catalogue 353 lots for this year's edition and look forward to welcoming a wide cross section of buyers, both domestic and from further afield, to Park Paddocks on the back of a strong Summer Sale and record-breaking July Sale.”
