Dreamfield set for stallion duties at Dashmesh Stud in India
Oasis Dream five-year-old is from a glittering Meon Valley line
Dreamfield, who showed flashes of brilliance in a light career for John Gosden, is heading to northern India to begin life as a stallion.
A son of Oasis Dream, he won both starts as a juvenile and made a striking handicap debut at Ascot in May the following season, winning so cheekily that he was sent off a 2-1 favourite for the Wokingham.
Denied by a neck at Royal Ascot, he went on to finish a close sixth in the July Cup. Dreamfield appeared only once this season, dropping away when making some of the running in the Abernant Stakes at the Newmarket Craven meeting.
He cost John Ferguson a cool 1,100,000gns when bought at Tattersalls Book 1 in 2015 on behalf of Godolphin, coming from Meon Valley Stud's wonderful Colorspin family.
Dreamfield is out of the Pretty Polly and Nassau Stakes winner Izzi Top, whose subsequent sons Prince Eiji and Willie John have also sold for seven-figure sums.
A deal was brokered by Stroud Coleman Bloodstock and Gaurav Rampal with Dashmesh Stud in Punjab
