The top 5 lots so far are all by GALILEO, 4 fillies and 1 colt

 

PNkt i dont suppose you would know who David Redvers would be representing?

 

Cape Cross colt out of Chinese White coming up, could go for a few quid.

68,000

could be a bargain, no one wanted him

 

He did look a bit small, not very scopey so thats probably why, expected 6 figures with the pedigree.
