Blue was the colour of choice for buyers on the opening day of the Tattersalls Ireland November National Hunt Sale, which belatedly but happily began on Saturday.
Blue Bresil, who will shortly start his second season at Rathbarry Stud, had just two representatives on the opening day but both created a bidding frenzy.
For the second successive year, John Dwan sold the yearling session-topper with his family’s Ballyreddin Stud consigning the Blue Bresil gelding who made €80,000.
Lot 32 is the third foal out of the Flemensfirth mare Wild Blueberry, and the irresistible combination of sires with the imposing gelding in the ring prompted bids from around the ring and outside.
