Pearl Of The West is another interesting prospect among the supplementary entries being a seven-time winner including a Grade B handicap hurdle at the Punchestown Festival.

The yearling section includes an own-sister to Leopardstown Grade B handicap hurdle winning mare Ballybawn Belter, and their sire, Valirann, will also be offered for sale from Ronnie O’Neill’s Whytemount Stud.
