Thursday's Tattersalls Guineas Breeze Up Sale was a sedate affair, with the number of six-figure sales dropping from eight to three, but the two top prices were higher than last year’s peak.

They both also provided their consignors with impressive returns on their yearling prices – no easy feat this year, given the strength of the 2025 yearling sales and the declining figures of the 2026 breeze-up sales.
