Five yearlings who can standout on the final day of Book 1

Lot 381

Pedigree: Invincible Spirit x Cassandra Go (Indian Ridge)
Sex: Filly
Consignor: Ballyhimikin Stud

This filly has plenty of appeal being by Invincible Spirit and out of the Group 2-winning and Group 1-placed Indian Ridge mare Cassandra Go. She is a half-sister to triple Group 1 heroine Halfway To Heaven, the dam of Rhododendron.

Aidan O'Brien's filly returned to form with success in the Prix de l'Opera on Sunday and provided a welcome boost to the page.

Lot 416

Dubawi x Danedream (Lomitas)
Colt
Newsells Park Stud (Agent)

This colt boasts the distinction of being the first yearling out of a female Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner to come under the hammer since My Typhoon, a daughter of Giant's Causeway and Urban Sea, who fetched 1,800,000gns in 2002.

Danedream needs no introduction and yearlings by Dubawi out of Group 1 winners understandably come at quite a premium - expect this colt to be the same.

Lot 418

Galileo x Dank (Dansili)
Filly
Norris Bloodstock

Brace yourself for an exciting couple of minutes in the ring with Dank's first foal making her appearance the ring soon after Danedream's Dubawi colt has exited the ring.

Dank, a dual Grade 1 winner, is a half-sister to two top-level scorers in Eagle Mountain and Sulk. She's been extremely popular over the last few days and is sure to sell well.

Lot 451

Dubawi x Ever Rigg (Lomitas)
Colt
Highclere Stud

Yet another lot by Dubawi catches the eye and he certainly boasts a classy pedigree being a brother to multiple Group 1 winner Postponed.

While Postponed will begin a new career at Dalham Hall Stud next year, could his younger brother turn out to be a superstar of the future? The family has also been active in recent weeks through his half-sister, the Group 3 winner God Given.

Lot 502

Galileo x Hveger (Danehill)
Colt
Camas Park Stud

The third and final session of Book 1 looks set to close with a bang thanks to this Galileo colt from Camas Park Stud. He is a brother to not one but two superstars in Highland Reel and Idaho.

Hveger, a daughter of Danehill, is a sister to Australian Group 1 winner Elvstroem and a half-sister to another top-level scorer in Haradasun.
