A breeding right to BAAEED heads 168 lots catalogued for the Tattersalls Online October Sale which takes place on 21^st – 22^nd October. The catalogue is available to view now at www.tattersallsonline.com and comprises 117 horses in and out of training, 27 broodmares, 10 yearlings, seven breeding rights, three stores, two foals as well as stallion shares in GALIWAY and HELLO YOUMZAIN.

This month’s catalogue provides breeders with an opportunity to invest in an outstanding selection of proven and emerging young sires, highlighted by a breeding right to Shadwell’s six-time Group 1 winner BAAEED. The Beech House Stud resident has made an encouraging start to his stallion career highlighted by recent Group 3 Darley Fillies Stakes winner CURRACLOE. His yearlings have been in strong demand at the sales this autumn with a top price of 425,000 guineas and an average yearling price of £160,033 to date.

Also on offer is a stallion share in Haras de Colleville’s proven Group/Grade 1 producer GALIWAY, the sire of top-level performers including SEALIWAY, SUNWAY and VAUBAN. Yearlings by the son of GALILEO have also been a popular attraction at the recent sales with top-price of 260,000 guineas achieved at last week’s Tattersalls October Book 1 Yearling Sale.  

Meanwhile, a half-share is being offered in last year’s leading European second crop sire HELLO YOUMZAIN, sire of Group 2 winner GODSPEED and recent Group 3 winner PERSIAN WONDER, whilst breeding rights to ARDAD, CATURRA, DUBAWI LEGEND, LOPE Y FERNANDEZ, PALACE PIER and SPACE BLUES are also available. 

Another strong offering of horses in and out of training are catalogued for this month’s sale. Amongst them are three lots being offered on behalf of Wathnan Racing led by Group 3 winner THE STRIKIN VIKING. The four-year-old son of INNS OF COURT was a brave winner of the Group 3 Goldene Peitsche at Baden-Baden in 2025 having previously twice finished runner-up in the Group 2 Richmond Stakes and Railway Stakes as a juvenile.

Willie Mullins’ Closutton Stables consigns five lots, headed by Grade 3-placed SOIR DE GARDE. A winner over hurdles and fences, the son of KAPGARDE finished third in the Grade 3 Ballybrit Novices’ Chase at the Galway Festival this summer.
