A St Mark's Basilica half-sister to G1 Prix de l'Opera winner Barnavara (Calyx) has been added to the Tattersalls December Foal Sale as a wild card entry.
Consigned by Awbeg Stud, the February-born filly out of the Kentucky Dynamite mare Alfea will be offered on the Friday of the sale as lot 895A. Her yearling half-sister by Blackbeard was sold for 450,000gns at Book 1 of the October Yearling Sale.
The further family includes leading sire Lope De Vega, who is a half-brother to the foal's third dam Bal De La Rose (Cadeaux Genereux).
Barnavara, who also won the G2 Blandford Stakes and G3 Blue Wind Stakes, is herself offered as lot 1753 by Baroda Stud during the Sceptre Sessions of the Tattersalls December Mares Sale.
