Purchased on behalf of Qatar based owner Mohamed Al Attiya, the Jamie Railton consigned colt is out of a half sister to triple Group 1 winner Goldikova and will go into training with Tom Dascombe. Bobby O'Ryan, Agent meanwhile signed for the next highest priced two year old of the sale for owner Rob Lloyd, Harefield Stud's Kyllachy colt of Stakes winner Mithl Al Hawa bought for £56,000.

Trainer Stef Liddiard will take charge of the next highest purchase of the day, Lot 21 an easy moving son of leading American sire Langfuhr from Powerstown Stud. The colt who cost £42,000 was one of three purchases by Anne Cowley at the sale. There was a strong Scandinavian contingency amongst the large number of international buyers at Kempton and Swedish owner Lasse Sjonull went to £36,000 to secure Lot 38 Suirview Stables' Green Desert colt. The horse is bound for Bent Olsen's yard in Copenhagen.

Commenting at the conclusion of the sale, Goffs Chief Executive Henry Beeby said:

"Lively trade selling horses to a wide diversification of clients both domestic and international. That sums up today's third renewal of the Goffs Kempton Breeze Up and in the current climate we are delighted with these results. Whilst these figures may not bear direct comparison with last year we live in a different world now and the kind of atmosphere we enjoyed today was lacking from a number of sales last Autumn. There is little doubt that the new Breeze Up Bonus made a significant impact and we would congratulate the instigators of this innovative scheme. - this was a most positive sale and we look forward to congratulating the winners that will inevitably flow in the very near future".
