Criterium International third Purplepay heads three further wildcard entries for next month's Arqana Breeding Stock Sale, where the daughter of the burgeoning first-season sire Zarak will be offered on the opening day.

The juvenile, a €100,000 purchase by Jean-Claude Rouget from the Select Yearling Sale last year, has won two of her six starts including a valuable sales race at Longchamp on Arc day.

Trained by Cedric Rossi, Purplepay added considerable value to her name when a length and a quarter third behind Angel Bleu at Saint-Cloud later last month. She will be offered as Lot 150 on December 4.

The Baroda Stud-consigned Rumbles Of Thunder will be sold as Lot 180, having won two Listed contests this term for Jerome Reynier.

The three-year-old Night Of Thunder filly is out of a half-sister to Musis Amica, the winner of the Prix de la Grotte who was also second to Laurens in the Prix de Diane. She is from the excellent family of White Star Line, the winner of three Grade 1s including the Kentucky Oaks.

Frankel's Magic, a three-time Listed-placed daughter of Frankel and the well-related Global Magic, has been entered as Lot 190 by consignor Sumbe.

The four-year-old is out of a Listed-placed half-sister to seven black-type performers including Group 2 winner Global Dream, and comes from the family of the top-class Fame And Glory.
