Tattersalls’ December sale - which began with a yearling session - continues Nov. 27 with the five-day foal sale followed by four days of breeding stock, starting Dec. 3.
 
Among the stars on show in the breeding stock section are group I winners Red Evie, Satwa Queen, and Indian Ink, while standout mares include Mandellicht, the dam of champion Manduro.
 
The Sangster family’s dispersal includes both Magnificient Style, the dam of $10.5 million Keeneland November sale topper Playful Act, and that filly’s half-sister, Distinctive Look. Both are in foal to Galileo.
 
A Montjeu half-brother to Playful Act is likely to be a highlight of the foal section as is a Pleasantly Perfect half-brother to European champion David Junior (Pleasant Tap), bred by Bridlewood Farm and Hill ‘n Dale Farm and offered by the Castlebridge consignment.
 
The foal sale runs through Dec. 1, starting at 10 a.m. each day, and the mare sale runs from Dec. 3 through Dec. 6, beginning at 9.30 a.m. each day.
