Bahraini owners Victorious Forever have snapped up their third top lot at Europe's biggest breeze-up sales after being revealed as the buyers of a Sioux Nation filly who made €1.1 million at the weekend. 

The Arqana sales topper is bound for the Newmarket yard of Simon and Ed Crisford a year after they received Zanthos, a €1m daughter of Sioux Nation who won the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket.

Victorious Forever's latest purchase comes after they secured top lots at two British sales, starting with a Starspangledbanner filly who cost 900,000gns at the Tattersalls Craven Breeze Ups. She is also in training with the Crisfords.
