    Lot 264 was led out unsold at 485,000gns.

    Current topper for the day is Lot 255 a son of Galileo out of the demoted 1,000 Guineas winner Jacqueline Quest, sold to China Horse Club & David Redvers for 1.2 million.

    Funny you say that, I've just been speaking to someone who had a chat with Roger Charlton up at the sales and apparently he said the colt is nothing like his brother and the breeder has "overestimated him" ;)

    If anyone has access to French racing, you may want to tune in to Equidia shortly as Zarkava's first runner (her fourth foal) ZARAK makes his debut in the 12.20 (11.20 BST) at Deauville.

    Her offspring to date have been:

    ZERKAZA (5yo mare by Dalakhani) - unraced
    ZARKASH (colt by Sea the Stars) - died in a training accident last year aged 3
    ZARKAR (3yo colt by Galileo)
    Unnamed yearling colt by Redoute's Choice
    Unnamed filly foal by Frankel
    Covered by Invincible Spirit earlier this year

    Well he won very easily. Dropped out towards the rear he settled well before making his move in the last 400m and putting the race to bed under a hands and heels ride, winning by about 1.5 lengths.

    It was a very nice debut. We just need Frankel's little brother PROCONSUL to have a little outing before the end of the year!
