Lot 41 Exceed And Excel x Aoife Alainn

Smart colt heads to Roger Varian

Offered by Deer Forest Stud, this colt proved popular with several bidders, but it was Roger Varian who had the final say, with the hammer coming down at €400,000.

The striking March-born colt is out of the Dr Fong mare Aoife Alainn, winner of the G1 Premio Lydia Tesio, which victory earned her owners as the Champion 3yo Filly in Italy in 2010.
