The Arqana August Sale this week presents the first opportunity for buyers to see the first yearlings by Champion Three-Year-Old Vadeni and Group winning miler Erevann.
Vadeni
Both horses, who stand at Haras de Bonneval alongside Siyouni and Zarak, have five lots catalogued, with a further two for Vadeni and six for Erevann in the following V2 sale.
Vadeni, a Stakes winner and Group-placed at two, achieved a rare France-UK double at three when winning the Prix du Jockey Club and the Eclipse Stakes. He was also placed in both the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe and Irish Champion Stakes, demonstrating great constitution, soundness and toughness in addition to a tremendous turn of foot.
His first foals last year sold for up to 200,000gns, with an average price of over €72,500.
Erevann
Erevann possesses an attractive stallion’s pedigree, being a son of sire of sires Dubawi out of Siyouni’s three-time Group 1 winning daughter Ervedya. Winner of the same maiden as his paternal half-brother Zarak on his two-year-old debut, Erevann won three races over a mile at three, including the Gr.2 Prix Daniel Wildenstein and Gr.3 Prix Paul de Moussac. He also placed third in the Gr.1 Prix Jacques Le Marois.
His first foals sold for up to 120,000gns for an average of over €37,000.
