Bolesworth attracted plenty of bidders to its successful 2022 Elite Foal Auction last night, Friday the 12th of August.
With 25 foals from remarkable bloodlines and one embryo by Chacco Blue, the Auction was hailed as the strongest, and best yet.
Twenty-one foals, out of 25, were sold on the night.
Top lot Uptons Funky Echo sold to the UK for £32,000. Uptons Funky Echo is the son of prolific Funky Music, CSI 1. 60m.The father of this striking colt Echo Van’t Spieveld combines his Heartbreaker blood perfectly with the Vigo D’arsouilles daughter ‘Funky Music’ to create a foal with technique, quality, balance and scope.
Uptons Funky Echo was closely followed by PK Carrera with the hammer falling at £31,000 – again, sold to the UK. PK Corera is a unique Cornet Filly out of Arera C – one of the best international mares of her generation. Her sire Cornet Obolensky needs no introduction; he has dominated the sport and breeding world for over a decade.
Commenting on the increasingly-popular Elite Foal Auction, Bolesworth managing director Nina Barbour said; “We had an incredible line-up of foals with top-class sires and dams with a range of incredible pedigrees.
“It gives us great pleasure to see so many young horses now on the circuit originating from our first few years of auctions, and we look forward to hearing great things about the future stars sold last night.”
