Pegasus 9 511 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 A colt by Dundeel topped the first session of the William Inglis Great Southern Sale at Oaklands on Sunday when selling for $250,000. The bay is closely related to Group I winners Bonneval, St Reims and Champagne and after an opening bid of $100,000 eventually sold to New Zealand-based Alan Fu for $250,000. The colt was consigned by Glastonbury Farm, Duncan Grimley who described bidding on the colt as 'a feeding frenzy' "That's a great result, he’s a really nice colt,” Grimley said “Dundeel is just going like a machine at the moment. “Everybody on the ground was on the horse. “Expectations would’ve been around $200,000, and he went in with a reserve of $150,000. “It was like a feeding frenzy up there - there was about seven or eight on him at $200,000." Earlier in the session Steve and Ceri Jostler went to $240,000 for a colt by Exceed And Excel out of a winning Zabeel half-sister to New Zealand Group I winner Vosne Romanee. benzracing 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franco Ice 36 Report post Posted June 18, 2019 Critically Dundeel had serious gas. Murray Baker maintained that had he and Andrew trained him specifically, he could have won a Group 1 sprint fresh-up. benzracing 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
