A HOST of broodmares with blacktype winning relations from Yorton Farm Stud and James and Jean Potter have been listed in ThoroughBid’s October Sale catalogue.

The sale, bidding for which goes live at 9am next Friday, is 41 lots strong and will see numerous quality broodmares go under the online hammer, alongside a number of talented horses-in-training and youngstock.

The broodmare listings includes A Cappella Lido, a half-sister to three-time Grade 1 winner Valseur Lido; Whenthepennydrops, own sister to Grade 2 winner Makin’yourmindup; two-time hurdle winner Cottie, own sister to Grade 3 winner West Balboa; Aloisa, own sister to Grade 2 winner Constantine Bay; Ladylea, a half-sister to dual Glenfarclas Chase winner Balthazar King; and Sagecraft, a half-sister to Grade 1 winner Kalashnikov.

Also listed in the catalogue are mares in foal, mares from the families of Azertyuiop, Defi Du Seuil, Denman and Roksana, alongside a good mixture of two-year-old and four-year-old stores, flat, National Hunt and dual-purpose horses-in-training, including Willie Mullins’ high-class dual-purpose performer Mt Leinster and bumper winner Ninth Loch.

All mares consigned by both Yorton and James and Jean Potter will be sold with a free cover to Arrigo, Ito or Pether’s Moon for the 2024 season. CEO of ThoroughBid, James Richardson, said: “We’re delighted to have both quality and quantity for the October Sale. To have been entrusted with a large consignment of quality mares from Yorton Farm Stud is a great compliment.

“The mixture of breeding stock, youngstock and smart horses in training from top trainers in both Britain and Ireland should attract plenty of attention to the catalogue, and we’re hoping for a competitive bidding period come next Friday.

“Mt Leinster is a particular highlight of the horses-in-training going under our online hammer. It’s great to have another top performer from the Mullins yard having sold Hubrisko well last month.”
