Unbeaten jumper Credrojava (Ire) (Presenting {GB}) (lot 33) topped Thursday's Tattersalls Online Sale when selling to Tobar Farm for 48,000gns.
Sold out of training by Harry Fry, Credrojava hails from a strong National Hunt family that includes Our Vic (Ire), Seigemaster (Ire) and more. After winning a Ballinaboola point-to-point for Sean Doyle, Credrojava was knocked down to bloodstock agent Kevin Ross for £80,000 at the Tattersalls Cheltenham February Sale in 2022. She proved an able performer for Fry, winning a bumper and twice over hurdles, with the latest of those successes coming in a Listed novice at Taunton.
One of the more interesting lots offered on Thursday was the former Gordon Elliott-trained Escaria Ten (Fr) (Maresca Sorrento {Fr}) (lot 14), who was sold with an entry to the cross-country chase at Cheltenham. Escaria Ten had been based with French-based handler Patrice Quiton this season and was knocked down to agent Gerry Hogan and trainer Martin Keighley on behalf of an owner of Keighley's for 30,000gns.
Meanwhile, the Ralph Beckett-trained Not Afraid (GB) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}) (lot 24) sold to Federico Barberini for the same amount. All told, there were 29 lots sold for a combined 240,700gns at an average of 8,300gns and a median of 4,000gns.
