00:00Broodmare's breeding prospects and horses in training took to the stage for day two

00:06of the Arcana summer sale.

00:08Lot 480 La Filomena, a three-year-old filly out of Jean-Claude Rouget's training yard,

00:13topped the sale at 395,000 euros.

00:17The black-type performer by Lope de Vega, whose maternal family already produced arcwinners

00:22Sagamix and Sagas, was secured by Blenford Bloodstock in partnership with Superiamo Bloodstock.

00:29She's a lovely filly.

00:30It's very, very rare to get a filly that's untapped.

00:33She's a lightly raced, last out, listed place filly.

00:36Great pedigree, great physique.

00:37Look, she's a 300,000 guinea yearling, and now she's listed place, so it's a funny market

00:42we work in.

00:43You know, so you pay more for something you don't know can run.

00:46We know this filly has ability.

00:48She's very good looking.

00:49We've got a great stallion, great family.

00:52The family's on the upgrade every week.

00:55It's a family that Blenford's closely associated with, with perfect power.

00:58And also, the horse that was third in the Cheshire, and it was very unlucky, the half-brother.

01:01It's gone blank on his name.

01:03Lovely, lovely filly.

01:05Very rare to get the opportunity to buy a filly that's untapped.

01:08Lot 405, Jamaica, was knocked down to Hubert Barbe.

01:12Already a winner at Roteuil, the gelding sold for 310,000 euros.

01:19He will now head to David Pipes and race in the colors of Professor Caroline Tisdale.

01:25She dreams to have a good chaser for the big meeting, so hopefully he's going to do

01:29the job.

01:30He's an improving type, he has the scope, he has everything, so now we think he's going

01:36to progress.

01:37Team Mullins kept on recruiting, securing, amongst others, lot 495, full of shade, for

01:43280,000 euros.

01:45The four-year-old filly is already placed on the Roteuil hurdles.

01:49We're looking at the last race in Roteuil.

01:51She made a huge mistake, probably would have won.

01:55And she's a very good-looking mare, with a pedigree.

01:58We love Norris Cattall, Willie Azalao, he's a top sire now.

02:03So we pay a little bit more than we thought, but, you know, Willie's happy.

02:10If Willie's happy, I'm happy.

02:11Lot 290, Sideralis, a black-type performer over the jumps, fetched the top prize in the

02:17breeding section, with bids rising slowly but surely.

02:20Patience paid off.

02:21Jean-Christophe Raymond had the last word at 145,000 euros for the five-year-old in

02:26full to Norris Cattall.

02:51It's Maurice Rouault, his son, François, and Jean-Marie Mercier, who were in the Charolais

02:57cattle.

02:58And we did charolais competitions together, that's it.

03:02I have a passion for animals.

03:05As far as the Charolais cattle are concerned, unfortunately, I'm stopping, because the

03:14The 2023 edition of the Summer Sale was the second most successful ever, after a record-breaking

03:29year in 2022.

03:31We look forward to welcoming you again in Deauville for the August sales and the inaugural

03:36running of the Arcana Series.
