00:00We've got half a dozen smart wildcars but very much one who stands head and shoulders

00:17above pretty well everything and that's the wonderful broodmare Kensey. She is a very

00:23very rare commodity indeed. She's the only dam of two group one winners to be offered

00:29for sale at public auction anywhere in the world this year and I can't remember one that

00:34we've actually catalogued so it really is a very rare commodity. She was a very good

00:38race filly in her own right. She was a listed winner as a two year old and she is a tribute

00:42to the very best of Guy Perriand's Arrow de Colville operation. We're really excited us

00:48at Arrow de Colville to send Kensey over to Tattersalls for the sector session on the

00:52Tuesday. It's a first for us at Arrow de Colville to sell a mare of her calibre and to sell

00:57one in the sector session as well. It's a really exciting prospect. She's a dam of two

01:01group one winners both of course by Gallyway who's our young up and coming sire. He's been

01:07a great addition to the stud and we know that Gallyway, that Galileo cross, matches so well

01:12with the Kendarge on Outcross. Kensey is the dam of this year's star group one winning

01:17two year old Sunway and also another champion two year old in the shape of Sealy Way who

01:22not only was champion French two year old but went on to win the champion stakes at

01:26Ascot on champion's day as a three year old. So not only are they group one winners but both of

01:30them won group ones at two. So you've got Sealy Way who won the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardère in

01:34impressive fashion by eight lengths that year and then followed it up the following year by

01:39winning the champion stakes at Ascot. So he's well known on the international stage and then

01:44not only did she do that but she then went and produced Sunway and Sunway of course for

01:48Debbie Benussier was placed in the champion stakes at Doncaster. Ran a really good race that day and

01:53then went and won the Criterium International at Saint-Cloud. So he looks like a really exciting

01:58prospect and Debbie Benussier has said he's his cult for the classics next year. He's made no

02:03secret that he always thought that Sunway would be a three year old. So whatever he's done at two

02:07has just been a bonus and to win a group one is is a pretty big bonus. It's very clear that Sunway

02:11is a very very smart prospect. I mean obviously he won the Criterium International group one race

02:16at Saint-Cloud in France and he's one of only five group one winning two year old cults trained in

02:22Britain this year. Debbie Benussier clearly regards him as a very genuine classic prospect

02:28for next year. So yet again Kensey has produced an outstanding group one winning two year old

02:34in the same manner as she did with Sealyway. So plenty to look forward to with Sunway. She's also

02:39in full to Zarek and I think she's the only one in the catalogue, the only mare in full to him and

02:43he's an exciting young sire on the up but she's been a wonderful mare for us. She's also only 13

02:48years of age so she's still got plenty of years ahead of her breeding. She's an exciting prospect

02:53for anyone to buy anywhere in the world and being by Ken Dargent who's proving his worth as a brood

02:58mare sire at the moment. So not only is it a great you know prospect offer for sale but it's also a

03:03really good advertisement for Guy Perriant and what he's achieved so far at Arrow de Colville.

03:09You know in a very short space of time the studs only been in operation for about 15 years.

03:14He's managed to not only create a top class sire in Ken Dargent who's proving his worth now as a

03:19brood mare sire but also his son Gokhan who we have coming along behind and now Gallyway as well.
