Linda Duckworth of Fairview Park was delighted with the result.

“He was very popular so I had a gut feeling he’d be among the top lots,” she said.

“He was a standout as a foal. His owners usually breed to race, but with this one I told them to have fun in the sale ring!”



Deep Field is the leading sire of three year-old winners in the country and has a big draft of 24 for this sale, click here to see them.
