The win of GREEN MOON in the Group 1 Emirates Melbourne Cup this morning provided a timely reminder of the quality on offer at the Tattersalls December Mare Sale that takes place from December 3 – 6.

GREEN MOON is out of the Group winning mare GREEN NOON who was purchased at the 2005 Tattersalls December Mare Sale for 150,000 guineas by James Wigan’s London Thoroughbred Services. The daughter of GREEN TUNE had also been placed in the Group 1 Prix Marcel Boussac as a two-year-old.

GREEN MOON, whose victory was the 42nd Group/Grade 1 win in 2012 for the progeny of Tattersalls sold fillies and mares, was also catalogued in the 2010 Autumn Horses in Training catalogue before being withdrawn.  

Catalogues for the Tattersalls December Mare Sale are available now from Tattersalls or Tattersalls representatives and online at www.tattersalls.com
