Hoof It's success in the Stewards' Sprint Stakes at Goodwood on Saturday cemented his popularity with racing fans and buyers will have the chance to snap up a half-brother to the talented handicapper – by none other than Frankel - at Book 1 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale.

The colt is the ninth foal out of Reg Bond's star broodmare, who from five runners has produced five winners. As well as Hoof It they include triple Group 3 heroine Ladies Are Forever and multiple scorers Bop It, Chosen Forever and Forever's Girl.
