Three Royal Ascot Group 1 Winners

The September Yearling Sale has experienced continuous growth year on year, and is now firmly established as one of Europe’s leading yearling sales. The profile of the sale has been elevated after three graduates struck in Group 1 company at Royal Ascot. Docklands has been a superb flagship horse for the sale, and his Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes victory set the tone for what was a remarkable run of top level graduate success.

Time For Sandals won the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup, returning to her high class juvenile form, and provided trainer Harry Eustace with a memorable Group 1 double. Finally, Cercene rounded off a memorable week to provide Joe Murphy, whose Crampscastle Bloodstock purchased the filly for €50,000 in 2023, with a first Group 1 winner in the Coronation Stakes.

Other graduates of the sale include Group 3 Priory Belle Stakes winner A Lilac Rolla, Group 3 Jannah Rose Stakes winner Sea The Boss and Group 1 Prix Jean Romanet runner up American Sonja. Graduates to strike at stakes level in 2024 included Group 3 Fred Darling Stakes winner Folgaria, Listed Platinum Stakes winner Super Sox, and Group 2 Prix du Gros-Chene winner Ponntos.
