Autumn yearling sales are in full swing and after heading to Doncaster premier sales in August with ok results we now head to Tattersalls Book 2 with 1 offering. Although we only have 1 filly to offer, I am confident in saying we are very much in the situation of quality over quantity.  Lot 898 Too Darn Hot x Lola Paige filly yearling is a Princess, she walks, she is correct and has a great attitude. To back these credentials up she vets very well too. We will be travelling down to Tattersalls on Friday morning and our filly will be available to view from 8am Saturday morning so please come and have a look and be sure not to miss her going through the ring on Tuesday next week.

AppleTree Stud managed to get our 3 offerings sold at Doncaster yearling sale although slightly disappointed with the results. First up was lot 103 an Ardad filly out of AppleTree's mare Sleepless, she was popular and a fine big strong filly and having made £26,000 there was profit in her. She went to a good school being bought by Robson Aguiar and we look forward to seeing her on the track early next year. Next up was lot 232 Palace Pier colt out of our good mare Astonishing. he made £68,000 so again there was a little profit there from his covering fee. He was bought by Tally Ho stud so we wait to see what they can make of him and we no doubt wait to see him at next years breeze up sales and hope he can enhance our mares page going forward. Our Last lot offered was lot 366 Lope Y Fernadez x Frequent colt who unfortunately only made £3,500 which was disappointing, he only cost AppleTree 5,000gns so although not the biggest lost I did expect him to make more. Granted he wasn't the prettiest but he moved very well and I thought this may push him to the £10,000 target. you win some you loose some with horses and we at AppleTree would like to offer all purchasers the very best of luck. Also a Very big thank you to all who came and took the time to viewed our horses, we look forward to seeing you in Newmarket.  

AppleTree Stud are offering 3 yearlings in the upcoming Doncaster Premier yearling sale 2 colts and a filly. First up is lot 103 Ardad x Sleepless bay filly, she is a big filly with plenty of size and substance to get on with. She had been very straight forward in her preparation and has a great temperament. Next up is lot 232 Palace Pier x  Astonishing chestnut colt, he is a flashy striking colt with a good pedigree behind him. He is a half to 3 stakes performers and out of AppleTrees top mare Astonishing. His half sister is an unraced filly named Rumba Numba in training with Roger Varian, she is pleasing in all her work and looks to have nice updates coming through in the future. AppleTrees last offering is lot 366  Lope Y Fernandez x Frequent bay colt, he was picked up at last December foal sale for 10,000gns. He moves impeccably and has a huge walk, with size and scope. Granted he may take a little time to come to hand but there is a race horse here.
