Ringside With Nicolas de Watrigant

Nicolas de Watrigant | Scoop Dyga

1) What is your one essential to get you through the busy sales season?

Warm boots and coat at this time of the year, and some coffee shots!

2) Which stallion's first yearlings impressed you most this year?

I thought the Olympic Glorys were attractive, good individuals, and racy types, I was also impressed by the few No Nay Nevers I have seen, and I was glad to buy a very nice filly by him from Tattersalls Book 1.

3) What horse springs to mind as your favourite purchase?

A very special Dabirsim filly (lot 201) from Arqana August that is already in training with Andre Fabre, and also a gorgeous Toronado filly from the same sale (lot 68).

4) And finally, if you had to select one other agent to buy a horse for you, who would it be and why?

In Europe I would say Stephen Hillen, his results speak for themselves.
