THERE will not be too many better updates for the Tattersalls December Sale than that of Lot 1618, the four-year-old New Approach (Galileo) mare Bandiuc Eile. This Group 2 Debutante Stakes runner-up was withdrawn from the same sale 12 months ago and instead put in foal to Profitable (Invincible Spirit).

The wait has already paid dividends as her half-brother Twilight Payment (Teofilo) this week won the Group 1 Emirates Melbourne Cup.
