John Stewart's Resolute Bloodstock Pays 1,000,000gns Online For The Classic-Placed A Lilac Rolla At Tattersalls
Yesterday at 01:28 PM
Multiple Group 1-placed filly A Lilac Rolla (Ire) (Harry Angel {Ire}) (lot 1735) became the first seven-figure filly or mare during Tuesday's Sceptre Sessions at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale. A half-sister to the multiple stakes placed Mutaaqeb (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), she sold for 1,000,000gns to John Stewart's Resolute Bloodstock, who was bidding online. Northern Farm was the underbidder.
Consigned by Paddy Twomey's Athassel House Stud, the bay won the G3 Ballylinch Stud Priory Belle Stakes at Leopardstown and was second in the G1 Irish 1000 Guineas and third in the G1 Falmouth Stakes. Bred by John Cullinan, A Lilac Rolla was a €40,000 purchase by Amanda Skiffington out of the Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale in 2022.
Resolute Bloodstock had signed–online once again–for the G3 Princess Margaret Stakes third Tales Of The Heart (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}) (lot 1721) for 650,000gns earlier in the day.
We have reached seven figures at the second session of the #tattsdecember Sceptre Sessions.
