Dundalk Debutante Faustyna Heads 10 Wildcards for Tattersalls Online February Sale

Wednesday’s eye-catching Dundalk maiden winner FAUSTYNA is one of ten wildcard lots added to the catalogue for the Tattersalls Online February Sale, taking place from Tuesday 17^th February – Wednesday 18^th February.

Bred and raced by the McNally family, the three-year-old filly by KODI BEAR made impressive ground from the rear of the field to win the six-furlong contest on debut for trainer Gavin Cromwell. A half-sister to four winners, FAUSTYNA is out of winning SIYOUNI mare AJOU, herself a half-sister to the Listed placed KING DAVID, whose family traces back to blue hen broodmare PONT-AVEN.

Fellow Dundalk winner FRIENDLY INVOICE, who broke her maiden tag over six furlongs in November for trainer Conor Maxwell, also joins the catalogue. Officially rated 73, the daughter of INVINCIBLE ARMY built upon the promise shown on her handicap debut to win by three-quarters of a length having been held up in the early stages. After an 8lb rise in the weights and an 86-day break, the three-year-old filly finished fourth at the same course over seven furlongs on her most recent start. 

In a catalogue already brimming with notable breeding prospects, another to join them is the beautifully bred M’AS TU VU consigned by Pen y Fan Stables. The daughter of FALCO is the dam of four winners to date including last year’s exciting Curragh maiden winner SPODO KOMODO. Boasting an exciting pedigree, she is a half-sister to three black type performers including the dam of multiple Group 1 winning champion THE GREY GATSBY.

BLUEAWAY is an attractive addition from Rod Millman’s The Paddocks. Raced only four times to date, the daughter of BLUE POINT is a half-sister to black type winners GO ANGELLICA and BREDENBURY as well as the dam of dual Group 3 winner and Group 2 placed TWILIGHT JET.

Elsewhere, the late entries include well-bred racing and breeding prospect RENE’S WALK from Dan Skelton’s Lodge Hill Stables, the twice-raced three-year-old PICTURE THIS from Whitehall Stud and the Michael Keady-trained LAST OUTALW, a dual winner on the turf.

Completing the wildcards are all-weather winner SUZUKA from Archie Watson’s Iveagh, a Newhall Estate Farm-consigned yearling filly by KAMEKO and three-time winning broodmare RODBOROUGH.
