Dam of Roderic O'Connor Makes 900K

Listed-winning Secret Garden (Ire) (Danehill) is now the dam of the 2010 G1 Criterium International and last year's G1 Irish 2000 Guineas hero Roderic O'Connor (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). The National Stud consigned her in foal to Galileo once again and the granddaughter of the champion Durtal (Ire) sold to Hugo Lascelles Bloodstock for 900,000 guineas. “She's been bought for an owner-breeder based in England,” Lascelles explained. “A Danehill mare, who has produced a Classic winner–what more can you ask for? She will go to Ireland from here and back to 'the horse'.”
