The Green Desert (by Danzig) sire line has been tremendously successful and so when one of its sons, a classic-winning half-brother to a classic star, has his first foals appearing in the auction ring, it is hardly a surprise that some of them will fetch good prices.

Frozen Power is one of a growing number of sons of the sprint champion and outstanding English stallion Oasis Dream (by Green Desert) at stud, and his top-priced foals of 2013 were an €82,000 filly out of Gala Style (by Elnadim), a €60,000 son of Penny Rouge (by Pennekamp), and a 42,000gns son of On My Knees (by Fasliyev).
