Siyouni proved very much the leitmotiv of the day, providing three of the four six-figure transactions. The final colt in the ring by the Haras de Bonneval resident, consigned by Haras d'Etreham, was knocked down to Tom Whitehead's Powerstown Stud for €105,000. The pinhooker expressed his admiration for the sire and confirmed that the half-brother to dual Listed winner FOURIOSO would be prepared for next year's breeze up sales.

The result provided a fairy tale ending for breeder Xavier Moyer, who keeps four mares at his property near Livarot and partnered with Philippe Jousset's Haras Bonne Chance to secure the nomination to Siyouni.
