Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Purchase Believing Wins Group 1 Al Quoz Sprint

The Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up purchase BELIEVING became the fifth Group 1 winner from the sale in the last three years when taking the Al Quoz Sprint at Meydan on Dubai World Cup night. The five-year-old daughter of MEHMAS was purchased by Jake Warren’s Highclere Agency for 115,000 guineas from the draft of Michael Fitzpatrick’s Kilminfoyle House Stud, having been purchased at Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale for 70,000 guineas from Baroda Stud.

BELIEVING had previously been placed in five Group 1 races before she was offered as part of the Sceptre Sessions at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale where she realised 3,000,000 guineas for her Highclere syndicated group of owners to the bid of MV Magnier. Remaining with trainer George Boughey, BELIEVING’s victory today was for the Coolmore team of Magnier, Tabor and Smith along with Resolute Racing’s John Stewart.

BELIEVING continues the phenomenal run of Group 1 success for the Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale following on from the success of Tattersalls Irish 2000 Guineas winner NATIVE TRAIL, 1000 Guineas winner CACHET, last season’s Futurity Trophy winner HOTAZHELL and dual Group 1 winning two-year-old VANDEEK.

The Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale takes place 14th – 16th April. Catalogues are online at www.tattersalls.com and are available from Tattersalls and Tattersalls representatives.
