Sceptre Session heads 1054 lots assembled for this year's sale
On Wednesday Tattersalls released the catalogue for their December Mares Sale which will be held at Park Paddocks from Monday, November 28 to Thursday, December 1. The new Sceptre Session, which will be conducted during the first two days of the sale, headlines the 1054 lots catalogued for this year's sale.
Lots included within the Sceptre Session include multiple Group 1 winner Alcohol Free (No Nay Never) and dual Group 1 winner Saffron Beach (New Bay) as well as Desert Berry (Green Desert), dam of this year's Group 1 Derby (1m4f) winner Desert Crown (Nathaniel).
Commenting on the catalogue for the 2022 Tattersalls December Mares Sale, Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony said;
"The Sceptre Sessions, named after one of the greatest fillies ever to grace the turf, were introduced to showcase the very best race fillies and broodmares and to add a new dimension to the Tattersalls December Mares Sale which is long established as the most prestigious and influential breeding stock sale in Europe.
"To have catalogued five truly exceptional Group 1 winning fillies as well as the dam of this year's Derby winner Desert Crown is the best possible start and suggests that the new 'Sceptre Sessions' have immediately captured the imagination of some of the world's most successful owners and breeders.
"In addition to the array of elite fillies and broodmares in the two 'Sceptre Sessions', the Tattersalls December Mares Sale also features consignments of real quality from Godolphin, Juddmonte Farms, and Shadwell Estates alongside dispersals from Normandie and Southcourt Studs, all of which has combined to produce an outstanding catalogue for Europe's premier sale of breeding stock."
