He’s Dubawi’s Horse of the Year bred on the Night Of Thunder cross who, perhaps most memorably, beat Enable in the G1 Eclipse. Has more offspring aged three with 95-plus Timeform ratings with a ‘p’ than Frankel, Sea The Stars and Lope de Vega. Opera Ballo, his highly rated multiple Stakes winner, is a miler to follow, while his first-crop G1 Victoria Derby winner Observer looks outstanding. Latest yearlings outsold all other third-crop sires. Prices include 400,000gns, €350k, 300,000gns, €260k.
