The catalogue for the sole Irish sale of 2-year-olds, the Tattersalls Ireland Goresbridge Breeze-up Sale, has been released and features 215 horses to be sold on Thursday, May 19.
Among the group of juveniles is an Invincible Spirit (Ire) half-brother to the five-time group winner Banimpire (Ire) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}) to be offered as lot 42 from Katie Walsh's Greenhills Farm draft.
The only juvenile by French champion sire Siyouni (Fr) in the catalogue is a filly out of American stakes winner Clenor (Ire) (Oratorio {Ire}) from the Longways Stables consignment (lot 158).
Sea The Stars (Ire) is represented by two lots, including a colt out of the G2 Blandford S. winner Tarfasha (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}) and thus a full-brother to the Listed winner Rakan (Ire). Catalogued as lot 100, he is consigned by Tally-Ho Stud and descends from a Ballymacoll Stud family which includes Group 1 winner Gamut (Ire) and Goodwood Cup winner Saddler's Rock (Ire).
Among the first-season sires with 2-year-olds catalogued are Havana Grey (GB), who already has three winners to his credit, Tasleet (GB), Kessaar (Ire), Sioux Nation, U S Navy Flag, Harry Angel (Ire), Saxon Warrior (Jpn) and Massaat (GB).
Seventy-eight of the horses in the sale are qualified for the Swedish Derby and Oaks series, while a further 18 are eligible for French owners' premiums. The 2-year-olds will breeze at Fairyhouse Racecourse on Wednesday, May 18 from 10am, and the sale takes place the following day at the Tattersalls Ireland complex starting at 10.30am.
