THE recent yearling sales at Tattersalls Park Paddocks went especially well with several outstanding lots snapped up by Godolphin and the lads from Coolmore.
Kia Joorabchian from Amo Racing also joined in and purchased the top lot, a Frankel filly, at 4.4million guineas. it was a record, She is to go into training with Ralph Beckett - and what a good season Ralph has had.
This filly will be given every chance to shine and reach her potential in his most capable hands.
Many of you readers have asked me what Frankel is looking like these days. Here are recent pictures of him including one of him in his paddock on a misty morning. Frankel has some girlfriends coming from Australia soon for him to cover. He is in demand all over the world and what an excellent stallion he is proving to be.
