BBAG staged a two-day mixed sale last week and this largely domestic trade saw just 60% of the lots offered changing hands. All of the best prices were achieved by yearlings.

The best price was €75,000 and this was paid by Lars-Wilhelm Baumgarten’s Liberty Racing 2020 for a son of leading sire Soldier Hollow out of the Group 2-placed Dalakhani mare Wilddrossel. The colt come from a family developed over many generations at Gestüt Röttgen and he missed his opportunity at the main yearling sale last month when he was withdrawn. From a family of champions, he will be trained by Henk Grewe.
