A colt foal by Walk In The Park brought a top price of €145,000 from Gerry Aherne during the second session of the Tattersalls Ireland November NH Sale on Tuesday.
Consigned by Oliver Loughlin, lot 433 is out of the Stowaway mare Posh Trish, who won at listed level at Cheltenham and Newbury.

The latter, part of the Ballyreddin Stud draft, is out of the listed hurdler En Vedette (Astarabad) and a half-brother to a pair of black-type horses.
