ALBAN Chevalier de Fau's Channel Consignment enjoyed a perfect start to the Arqana Summer Sale, selling the two highest priced lots at Tuesday’s opening session, which predominantly consisted of two-year-olds from both codes.

The operation’s previous success may have been part of the appeal for Guy Petit, who had sourced dual graded winner and Grade 1 runner-up Nietzsche Has from their draft two years ago. The agent’s latest acquisition is a No Risk At All half-brother to two Grade 3 winners, for whom he stretched to €180,000.
