Ebaraya, a winning Sadler’s Wells full sister to Champion Three-Year-Old filly Ebadiyla, topped the {Aga Khan} Studs' draft of fillies and mares sold at the Goffs November sale.
Also a half sister to Group 1 winners Edabiya and Enzeli, she was purchased by Sean Mulryan of Ardenode Stud for €925,000 on Saturday evening.
Commenting on his purchase, Mr. Mulryan noted: “I am building up a broodmare band and went for Ebaraya because of her pedigree. I have as yet no idea which stallion she will go to.”
Anaza, a Stakes winning daughter of champion broodmare sire, Darshaan, and already dam of eight winners from 10 foals including Group 1 winner Astarabad, continued the pattern when topping the sale on Sunday. She was knocked down to David Nagle of Barronstown Stud for €200,000, and is carrying a three-quarter brother or sister in blood to Astarabad.
Other notable purchases from the draft included Kerasana, daughter of Stakes winner Keraka from the family of Kalanisi; the winning Danzig mare Tarziyana, in foal to Zafonic and Group 1 winner Behera, who has already produced the Group Winning filly Bayrika. They realised €80,000, €78,000 and €60,000 respectively.
2025 has been another successful year for the connections of mares bred and sold by the Aga Khan Studs. No fewer than four Group 1 winners have flown the flag worldwide – including two high-profile juveniles.
