Smart performers and breeze-up horses headline the Tattersalls Online June Sale

Gordon Elliott's Grade 1-placed Vina Ardanza features among entries for the Tattersalls Online June Sale, with bidding now open for the event.

The Califet gelding was third to Jonbon and El Fabiolo in the Top Novices' Hurdle at Aintree and headlines the horses in training entries, while the Roger Varian-trained Dragon Icon, a dual winning Lope De Vega brother to Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf winner Aunt Pearl, is another notable in the line-up.

Meanwhile, there are breezers by sires including Ardad, Cotai Glory, Dandy Man, Earthlight, Kameko, Kodi Bear, Phoenix Of Spain, Profitable and Ulysses. 

The horses breezed prior to the auction at Chelmsford and Dundalk racecourses, with the footage and timings all available on the Tattersalls Online website. 

Baroda Stud's draft includes Respectful, a half-brother to Group 3 winner Doctor Geoff and Group-2 placed Show Respect, as well as an unraced daughter of Galileo and Group 3 winner and dual Group 1-placed Wind Chimes. 

Donnacha O’Brien’s Bawnmore Stables present lots including Huxley, a three-year-old Galileo half-brother to Cloth Of Stars.

The point-to-point section includes Kingsfield Stud's Myleno, a six-year-old son of Martaline who is a winner of two points, most recently at Taylorstown last month. 

The broodmares on offer include Inca Queen, a half-sister to Jebel Ali Mile winner Fanaar who is in foal to El Caballo. Mares are also offered in foal to King Of Change and Lope Y Fernandez.
