Frankel Filly out of Group Winner Queen Power Added to Tattersalls October Book 1

The beautifully bred FRANKEL filly out of the Group 2 Middleton Stakes winner QUEEN POWER has been added to Book 1 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale as a wildcard. Catalogued as lot 196A, the chestnut filly will be consigned by Ed Player’s Whatton Manor Stud and joins a plethora of fillies with outstanding pedigrees in Europe’s premier yearling sale. 

The filly hails from one of the best families in the Stud Book, with her dam QUEEN POWER a half-sister to the Group 1 Prix d’Ispahan winner ZABEEL PRINCE and the Group 2 winner and multiple Group 1 placed PUISSANCE DE LUNE. QUEEN POWER is also a half-sister to the dams of Champions FIELD OF GOLD and RIZEENA. FIELD OF GOLD was the Champion 3YO European Miler whose victories included the Group 1 Tattersalls Irish 2000 Guineas and the Group 1 St James’s Palace Stakes. RIZEENA was Champion 2YO who won the Group 1 Coronation Stakes and Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes. 

The SHAMARDAL mare QUEEN POWER was a high-class racehorse herself when trained by Sir Michael Stoute. Alongside her Group 2 victory in the Middleton Stakes at York, she also placed in the Group 2 Dahlia Stakes on two occasions as well as finishing fourth in the Group 1 Nassau Stakes. 

Whatton Manor Stud’s Edward Player commented: 

“We are very excited to offer this exceptionally good-looking filly from one of the most contemporary families in the stud book. She will undoubtedly appeal to both owners and breeders, representing a rare opportunity to acquire a filly with such a wonderful pedigree.”

Book 1 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale takes place from 6 – 8 October. Catalogues are out now and available from Tattersalls and Tattersalls representatives and online at www.tattersalls.com.
