Roseabad (meaning The Land Of Roses) who I purchased from the Tattersalls Book 1 yearling sale for 45,000gns won on debut today at Bath racecourse and in doing so won £45,000. The daughter of Awtaad who is owned by Mr Hussain Lootah and trained by Johnston Racing is a half-sister to Group winner and Qatar legend, Dubday.
Despite being green throughout the race, Roseabad was educated superbly by jockey William Buick and galloped out strongly to the line to beat the odds-on shot Albanman by a neck. The £45,000 in prize-money was made up of the Tattersalls Book 1 bonus, the Plus 10 bonus and the prize-money on offer. Congratulations to all connections.
The 2020 edition of the Tattersalls Book 1 sale will be held 6-8 October. If you are interested in purchasing at this sale, please make contact +44 7769 349240 or email [email protected]
