Irish-breds top the Hong Kong International Sale

A KODIAC (Danehill) gelding, bred in Ireland, topped the Hong Kong International Sale at Sha Tin on Saturday, when all 11 lots on offer sold for a total of HK$31.7 million (€3.75 million). Six of the lots sold were bred in Ireland, two in France, two in Argentina and one in Britain. The half-dozen Irish-breds, all three-year-olds, made the top six prices.
