Not least thanks to the terrific performance of our Derby winner SAMMARCO, our three-time champion Sire SOLDIER HOLLOW's first championship as a broodmare sire is within reach this year.
Sammarco is already the second Gr.1 winner for the In The Wings son after SCHNELL MEISTER out of the Diana winner SERIENHOLDE, so there is a growing interest in offspring out of SOLDIER HOLLOW mares. This was also evident at the Arqana Yearling Sale, which ended yesterday in Deauville, where the first product of the Gr.3-placed NOVA SOL fetched €250,000 and a filly out of the classically-placed NYMERIA (photo), who has already produced two winners, achieved a top price with €200,000. Both mares are products of our Park Wiedinger breeding operation and are offspring of our Champion2YO and top mare NAROOMA.
