00:00The first day of the 2021 Arcana Autumn Sale was dedicated to horses in training, with

00:08credentials on the flat or over the jumps, as well as stores with serious potential.

00:14Foxfire Glow, a three-year-old gelding, trained by François Nicolle, topped the session at

00:18315,000 euros.

00:20The bidder on the phone wished to remain anonymous, but it is safe to assume that the son of Vadamos,

00:26with one place in two promising starts, will pursue his career abroad.

00:31Dumbledore made two significant purchases, including Ironica de Té, a three-year-old

00:35gelding, and winner of his only start.

00:39Guy Charelle, it came very highly recommended by Guy, he said he had the brother who was

00:44a champion and he said that this horse was very green and it was more a building process

00:48and the fact he won first time out was a big plus to the horse's future.

00:52He's schooled him well and so the future is bright with him and I like buying off Guy,

00:57he's been good to me in the past, he told me what he wanted for it and we had to go

01:01and bid hard for him.

01:02He's going to Christian Williams for Gwent Holdings.

01:05See elegant, another three-year-old gelding was acquired for the same connections.

01:09The son of Jemmix, trained by Yannick Fouin, had placed second on Auteuil's hurdles for

01:14his only start.

01:16The recruiting team for William Mullins scored three prospects, including the physically

01:20impressive Keh de Paris, who placed third for his hurdle debut.

01:24He really looked like an Irish point to point, you know, three years old, he's massive, 16.2

01:31plus, he really looked like an Irish horse, so that's why we love him.

01:37Going chasing, in the thinking of that, you know, later on, he's just a really good looking

01:45horse, very correct.

01:46Mascot Marvell is a good sire, we think, we love Mascot Marvell, so he should be lucky

01:52with Willy.

01:53The team also secured Alastor, a dual-purpose prospect.

01:57The three-year-old placed third in the Italian derby for trainer Gianluca Bietolini.

02:04Four-year-old Ulan Bator Dechet will be another addition to the Mullins band.

02:09He's by the great pretender like Benny De Dieu and undefeated in two starts on the flat.

02:15He's also been schooled over the jumps by Alain Coetil.

02:18Lot 452, Jamestown, was the highest-priced store at €130,000.

02:25He's a beautiful horse, he's by Dr Dino, obviously, that we're being very lucky with.

02:29He's bought for Andy and Gemma Brown.

02:32He's a hard brother to tell to work that Gordon Elliot trained, and also this guy will be

02:36trained by Gordon.

02:38We're very happy with him.

02:39Flat prospect Singleton was acquired by Swiss Connections and will be trained to race on

02:44the frozen lake of St Moritz.

02:46Just one day after triumphing in the Longines Fegentry World Championship for Lady Riders,

02:51Anna Jouankova purchased Cassini for Eastern European owner Anna Polednikova.

02:57He has great performance, so this is why we chose him.

03:01He was amazing, he looks amazing, and he had no problems, so we had to have him.
