Consigned by Yeomanstown Stud, the session-topping colt is a son of Dark Angel and the Listed-winning Elusive Pimpernel mare Elusive Beauty. Horton and Sackville were busy throughout the session and also secured a £95,000 Showcasing filly out of Girls Talk and later added a Havana Gold colt in a private sale at £40,000, both of whom were consigned by Lynn Lodge Stud.
