A full-sister to the European champion three-year-old of 1997, Desert King, made #650,000 at this afternoon`s second day of the Orby Sale at Goffs in Kildare.
Mrs Chryss O`Reilly, who races extensively in Ireland and France, is the new owner of the daughter of Danehill submitted from the Irish National Stud.
Described later by Mrs O`Reilly`s racing manager James Kelly as 'a beautiful filly', the May-foaled yearling is heading to the nearby Castlemartin stud and a decision will be made in the coming weeks as to who will train the daughter Nureyev mare Sabaah.
The trade was brisk once more, with the Irish buyers again picking up some of the choice lots as agent Dermot Forde signed for an Entrepreneur colt on behalf of a Swiss owner for #550,000.
A half-brother to Polar Falcon, the colt will be trained in France by Nicholas Clement.
