She is out of the Listed winner and Group 3 third-placed Fashion Queen (Aqlaam), a half-sister to the dam of the Richmond Stakes (G2) winner and Prix Morny (G1) third-placed Asymmetric and Mill Stream, winner of the Duke Of York takes (G2). (16:46)

The three-year-old colt is out of the Listed placed Swift Campaign (Intikhab) the dam of three winners from four runners, including the two-year-old Transcending, who won at Leopardstown in June, a winner for new sire King Of Change. (15:56)

The stable's owner Kusnadi Halim is at Tattersalls with his racing consultant Sennet Ho, who said: "We have bought this horse for stud duties, and we liked him for his his conformation, everything is well proportioned. We want to increase the breeding population in the region and we are looking for new bloodlines. As Indonesia is so big it is hard to travel so studs use stallions for their own private purchase."

With changes to racing scene in the region, racing having come to an end in Macau and in Singapore, Ho is keen to explore new opportunities that could open up saying, "Macau so close and there is plenty of potential." (15:18)

Ritchie has enjoyed success buying at Tattersall before – he purchased Mahrajaan at the Autumn Horses In Training Sale 2022 for 75,000gns. The son of Kitten's Joy has gone on to win the New Zealand and Auckland Cup (G2) and is now being aimed at the Melbourne Cup.

Ritchie, who is based at Cambridge, is hoping he can repeat the feat with Davideo, and said: "He was my number one pick here. He has a big frame to fill out and he looks as though he goes on all types of going and he has a pedigree to back it up. We will get him home and try take him down the same route as as we did with Mahrajan – if he can successfully do that then we will take him to Australia as well, it is easy from over the 'ditch' to get there."

Of immediate plans, he added: "He will be on the next flight Down Under – we have quarter acre paddocks at home and every horse gets into a paddock through the day and a horse with a big frame like that will really suit that style of training."

He added: "Mahrajan has a strong chance of being the New Zealand Stayer of the Year, and it is really on the back of his success that we have been encourages us to come back again."

And of ownership plans, he outlined: "Last year I bought Mahrajan with 50 per cent sold and I have done the same again. You can buy a nice yearling at home in Australia or New Zealand and they are hard to move, whereas you buy a horse here and start mentioning the Cup races and everyone wants to get involved."

McKeever said: "Gary has seven broodmares in Europe because he likes our staying bloodlines. The mares are kept at New England Stud and Gary is here on his annual July visit.

"We are gradually buying mares who we cover on southern-hemisphere time – they stay in England for a year or so, and then join Toby Liston of Three Bridges, and she will be covered by Too Darn Hot, although we might keep her in training for a few months just to see if there is a chance of grabbing a bit of black-type somewhere. We'd probably keep her with Andrew [Balding] and in the routine she is used to. She has an amazing back family and is a beautiful filly that was important a good physique was paramount."

Explaining the attraction of sending the mare to visit Too Darn Hot, McKeever added: "He looks as though he could be an absolute breeding-changing stallion. It is so unusual that a sire can operate in both hemispheres."

The daughter of Siyouni cost her new connections 135,000gns. (14:25)

By Night Of Thunder and placed once as a three-yer-old last year, she is out of the Group 1 Falmouth Stakes winner Nahoodh (Clodovil) and a half-sister to Hawkesbury, a Listed winner in Dubai, and Etes Vous Prets (Too Darn Hot), winner of the Hochi Hai Fillies Revue (G2).

The family has further links with Juddmonte's champion sire – Our Obsession is a half-sister to Frankly Darling (Frankel), winner of the Ribblesdale Stakes (G2) and third-placed in the Oaks (G1).

It is the stud's leading family of the Group 1 winner Rebecca Sharp and the Derby winner and champion three-year-old Golden Horn.

Norelands Bloodstock, of course, has been successful buying this pedigree from Hascombe before, notably when the farm, through BBA Ireland, purchased Fleche D'Or at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale for 62,000gns – the mare's Cape Cross colt born that spring was Golden Horn. (13:19)

The daughter of Galiway was placed at Deauville over 7f on her one run to date for trainer Christopher Head and owner Qatar Racing and breeder Guy Pariente.

The syndicate's director George Gill was in situ at Tattersalls and doing the bidding and he said: "We know this family very well as we own her half-brother Purosangue, who was second in the Coral Charge at Sandown on Saturday, and Teme Valley Racing, our partner in him, also owns the other half-brother Tropical Storm, who was second at Royal Ascot in the Norfolk Stakes."

He added: "We are looking to expand our broodmare band, she is in-foal to Aclaim, who is sire of Purosangue. She will go to Galiway Stud at Woburn from here.

"She has a good family and good updates and she is an exciting prospect."

Of the reason behind buying at broodmare prospect, he said: "We have two broodmares, it is a long term thing but it is something that is slightly different, it is an exciting thing to do in the UK, and it is where my interest lies and a lot of the clients have followed suit.

"We have two foals on the ground by New Bay and Lope De Vega. We have changed our strategy a little bit to buy fillies with residual value. Obviously in our game it is all about keeping your money alive for the long term, and we are focused on fillies with a good page – even if they are moderate racehorses they still have some value."

The syndicate has around 50 horses in training and is looking to target the Qatar Goodwood Festival with a number of horses, and with Purosangue likely to run in the Stewards' Cup. (11:15)

“Demand in the Horses in Training section of the 2024 Tattersalls Guineas Breeze Up and Horses in Training Sale has without doubt exceeded expectations, with domestic British and Irish buyers competing strongly with their international counterparts to produce record-breaking trade comfortably surpassing the previous records for turnover, average and median as well as the number of lots selling for 100,000 guineas or more.

"The clearance rate for the horses in training was a remarkable 94 per cent, yet again demonstrating the sustained global appetite for British and Irish horses in training sold at Tattersalls, and the horses belonging to Coverdale Stud and Titanium Racing were particularly sought after with buyers from throughout Europe, the Gulf region and Australia all making their presence felt.

"Nevertheless, the strong and diverse demand that produced the wide-margin record-breaking Guineas Horses in Training Sale was not matched in the Breeze Up section of the sale and, while the combined turnover for the Breeze Up and Horses in Training is a record, and the breeze up average and median prices have held up well in relation to last year’s record-breaking sale, the clearance rate has been well below par.

“In the months leading up to both the Tattersalls Craven and Guineas Breeze Up Sales members of the Tattersalls team have made promotional visits to a host of international markets including America, Australia, Bahrain, Dubai, France, Hong Kong, Italy, Norway, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Spain and Sweden and the two sales continue to attract considerable numbers of overseas buyers, but as has been noted at the earlier Breeze Up Sales, there is a selectivity to the market which has been reflected in clearance rates that have not matched the impressive levels achieved last year.

"It is clear that there are challenges in the current marketplace, challenges which reflect wider economic realities, but it should also be recognised that competition for quality British and Irish bloodstock remains robust and diverse.

"The breeze up consignors have as ever done an outstanding job, there have been some spectacular pinhooking successes today and there is no doubt that this year’s renewal of the Tattersalls Guineas Breeze Up Sale will further enhance the sale’s reputation as a consistent source of Group 1 horses."
