WHAT PATH (Lot 12), a winner of a Galway Festival bumper as well as twice over hurdles when reaching a rating of 135, will be joined by stablemates WE’LLHAVEWAN (Lot 19), who has won and placed at Listed level over both hurdles and fences respectively, and expensive point-to-point graduate CADOUDAL SAINT (Lot 15).
After his maiden win on Sunday, LITTLE TRILBY (Lot 17), trained by Gordon Elliott, is also offered in the sale, while there are a number of pointers consigned by Monbeg Stables, who sold champion hunter chaser ITS ON THE LINE through ThoroughBid in 2022.
Further, Chris Barber has consigned exciting maiden and restricted point-to-point winner ALL STAR BOY (Lot 6), a five-year-old by Youmzain.
Barber said: “He’s a very interesting horse that could progress through the pointing ranks or go Under Rules and make a bright chaser in the future.
“He was a weak, raw horse when we bought him off Matty Flynn O'Connor, and he probably didn’t want the heavy ground he was running on. We made a plan to run him through the season and he went and won nicely the first day.
“There was a short period when my horses weren’t quite right and we ran him over 2m4f, which was probably a bit too sharp for him, but he bounced back from that the last day. He won quite impressively and Will [Biddick] didn’t have to ask a question, while the second has come out and finished second again, only beaten a neck, Under Rules recently. He’s a very promising type.”
Commenting further on the June Sale catalogue, CEO of ThoroughBid, James Richardson, said: “Several Willie Mullins-trained horses have sold with us recently and it looks like we have three more nice types in this June Sale. What Path and We’llhavewan have both shown a high level of form over obstacles, while Cadoudal Saint is a fine prospect, having won a point-to-point last year and run well in a bumper and two maiden hurdles.
“Gordon Elliott’s recent maiden hurdle winner Little Trilby adds further interest to a good mixed catalogue, which also includes pointers from the well-respected Monbeg Stables and a nice recent winner of Chris Barber’s. We look forward to the bidding getting underway next Tuesday 25thJune.”
Bidding for the June Sale is on Tuesday 25th June, 9am-12pm.
