Widely regarded as the world’s most international bloodstock sale, the Tattersalls December Mares Sale has consistently featured major consignments from Godolphin, Juddmonte Farms and Shadwell Estates, and the three drafts catalogued for the 2021 renewal total 224 lots comprising 101 from Godolphin, 30 from Juddmonte Farms and 93 from the late Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum’s Shadwell Estates. 

 

The Godolphin team features mares in foal to leading proven sires DARK ANGEL, DUBAWI, NIGHT OF THUNDER and SIYOUNI as well as the Listed and Group winning duo SARINDA and UNDER THE STARS who are both in foal to Champion sire elect FRANKEL. Also amongst the Godolphin mares are the Group and Listed winners DANCING SANDS, LADY LIBERTY and YELLOW ROSEBUD in foal to their young sires CRACKSMAN, EARTHLIGHT and TOO DARN HOT respectively, as well as the Stakes producer ZAM ZOOM in foal to world champion GHAIYYATH.

 

The 93 Shadwell fillies and mares are equally eye-catching with mares in foal to exciting young stallions BLUE POINT, MASAR, MOHAATHER, PERSIAN KING and PINATUBO likely to prove popular alongside those in foal to proven Group 1 sires including DARK ANGEL, INVINCIBLE SPIRIT, KINGMAN, LOPE DE VEGA, NIGHT OF THUNDER, OASIS DREAM and SIYOUNI. Shadwell fillies have long been highly sought after at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale and amongst this year's regally bred fillies are those tracing back to the direct families of Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum’s outstanding homebred Champions ALHAARTH, BAHRI, ESWARAH, GHANAATI, LAHUDOOD, MEHTHAAF, NASHWAN, SHADAYID, TAGHROODA and latest superstar BAAEED.

 

The Juddmonte consignment is another perennial December Sale highlight and young mares in foal to FRANKEL and KINGMAN from top Juddmonte families are joined by regally bred fillies including half-sisters to Group 1 winners EPICURIS, QUADRILATERAL and WINSILI as well as NOT IN DOUBT, the winning three-year-old SEA THE STARS daughter of multiple Grade 1 winner INTERCONTINENTAL, herself one of the five Group/Grade 1 winners out of the legendary Juddmonte broodmare HASILI.

 

In a catalogue of real depth, proven dams of Group winners include SUNDAY TIMES, the dam of Champion NEWSPAPEROFRECORD, in foal to LOPE DE VEGA, MONDELICE, dam of 2021 Group 2 winning rising star DUBAI HONOUR, in foal to NEW BAY and VADARIYA, dam of 2021 Group 3 winner WALIYAK, in foal to PINATUBO, while Group 1 winning mares in foal include Sir Robert Ogden's AMAZING MARIA, in foal to OASIS DREAM, as well as BLOND ME, FLOTILLA, PENELOPA and TEMIDA in foal to SIYOUNI, SEA THE MOON, MEHMAS, and SEA THE MOON respectively. 

 

In addition to Group 1 winners BLOND ME and FLOTILLA, an outstanding draft of 21 fillies and mares from Newsells Park Stud also includes a rare jewel in the form of six-year-old Group 2 winner WALDLIED, the NEW APPROACH three-parts sister to Arc winner WALDGEIST, in foal to KINGMAN. Also guaranteed to be amongst the highlights of the Newsells Park consignment and the sale is the four-year-old Group 2 Blandford Stakes winner CAYENNE PEPPER. The Classic placed daughter of AUSTRALIA hails from the direct family of GALILEO and SEA THE STARS. 

 

While outstanding Group 1 Cheveley Park Stakes runner up FLOTUS is the star two-year-old in the catalogue, she is joined by an illustrious band of Group winning three and four-year-old fillies in/out of training, most notably last year's Group 1 Prix Marcel Boussac winner TIGER TANAKA, who ended her two-year-old career as the joint highest rated two-year-old filly in France alongside Group 2 Criterium de Maisons-Laffitte winner PLAINCHANT, who is one of a typically strong 11 lot team from French based consignors European Sales Management, which also includes Group and Listed winning fillies FEEL GLORIOUS, MADELEINE MUST and SEE THE ROSE.

 

Having enjoyed a stellar year, Nick Bradley Racing will be offering a quartet of Group and Listed winning fillies in training headed by the Group 2 winning three-year-olds DANDALLA and FEV ROVER, both of whom also boast Classic or Group 1 form. They are joined by Listed winning Oaks runner up MYSTERY ANGEL, the Group 3 winning two-year-old CORAZON and the Group 1 Cheveley Park Stakes fourth GUILDED.

 

The beautifully bred Group 3 Sceptre Fillies’ Stakes winning three-year-old JUST BEAUTIFUL, beaten only twice in seven lifetime starts for trainer Ivan Furtado, is another filly with massive international appeal as are the Group 3 winners AXANA, HAVE A GOOD DAY, LULLABY MOON, SANTOSHA, STELA STAR and the Listed winning, Group 1 placed trio of QUE AMORO, MEASURE OF MAGIC and ES LA VIDA.
