Siblings of Emily Upjohn and Teona in the top of the range Goffs November Foal Sale catalogue

Sea The Stars full brothers of Emily Upjohn and Teona are headlining a top catalog for the Goffs November Foal Sale taking place next month.

Cataloged as lots (641) and (566) they are two of the standout foals in a selection that includes relationships with Group 1 achievers, with other highlights being the Kingman half-siblings of Group 1 winner Jannah Rose (754) and the Group 2 winner and St Leger runner-up Arrest (700).

The Camelot half-brother of 1,000 Guineas and Prix Rothschild heroine Mother Earth is another highlight in the pedigree, while there is also a Lope de Vega half-sister to Lowther Stakes winner Living In The Past from the family of 2,000 Guineas and Dewhurst- winner Chaldean (574); a No Nay Never colt out of the listed Galileo mare Thoughts Of June (535) and another filly by Kingman (540), who is a half-sister of Group 3 winner Basil Martini.

A total of 1021 foals have been cataloged for the four-day sale and in addition to the elite stallions already mentioned, sires such as Dark Angel, Invincible Spirit, Mehmas, Night Of Thunder Siyouni, Too Darn Hot and Wootton Bassett are also represented.

The sale offers buyers the first opportunity to purchase the debut offspring of sires such as champion Baaeed and Group 1 winners such as Bayside Boy, Blackbeard, Minzaal and State Of Rest.

Henry Beeby, CEO of the Goffs Group, said: “The Goffs November Foal Sale has had another successful season, followed by many lucrative pinhooks, and we are proud to once again be able to secure the vast majority of the best Irish foals to show. We are grateful to our suppliers who continue to choose Goffs November as their first choice for their quality foals, recognizing its market leading status.”

The sale will take place from November 18 to 21 and will be followed by the two-day November Breeding Stock on November 22 to 23. That catalog will be published later this week.

Both Ambivalent, the Group 1-winning dam of Teona, and Thoughts Of June, with their respective colts by Sea The Stars and No Nay Never, were sold at Goffs last November.
