EIGHT of the nine sons and daughters of Sea The Stars (Cape Cross) catalogued and offered at Arqana last weekend were sold, one of them to the Godolphin team. This was the same weekend that Sheikh Mohammed’s operation landed the Group 2 Shadwell Prix de la Nonette at the local Deauville track with Sea The Stars’ three-year-old daughter Terebellum.

A listed-placed winner in England, this was an important step up for the filly and she cost Godolphin €400,000 at Arqana in August, 2017. Trained by John Gosden, Terebellum was bred by Alan O’Flynn and sold as a yearling through Brendan Holland’s Grove Stud.
