DONCASTER YEARLING SALES: TOP LOT FOR DANSILI
Quotes taken from the EBN
DANSILI colt sells for £200,000 to M V Magnier
Newsells Park manager Julian Dollar said:
“That’s a wonderful result – it’s a pity Mr Jacobs [the late owner of the stud] is not here to witness it. He would have loved the occasion, and to see the stud getting results like this.
“Dansili is doing so well and this colt was a thoroughly nice, athletic horse. He stood out.”
OASIS DREAM sells for £90,000 to Angus Gold
Richard Aston said:
“We’ve had the yearling for eight weeks to prep for this sale, but she was reared at Bill and Caroline Paton-Smith’s stud at Marbury in Cheshire. She’s been a lovely filly, as you can tell when Coolmore and Shadwell are interested.
“OASIS DREAM is phenomenal – the yearling still has to be right, but you’re blessed when selling horses by a stallion that has enjoyed his level of success in the past three weeks. You cannot beat recent form."
