Chasemore Farm's lot 1008, a son of Starspangledbanner (Aus), took the lead during the second session of Book 2 of Tattersalls October Yearling Sale on Tuesday when selling for 550,000gns to the Hong Kong Jockey Club. Bred by Chasemore, his dam Wowcha (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}) is a half-sister to the late The Wow Signal (Ire) (Starspangledbanner {Aus}), who won the G1 Prix Morny and G2 Coventry S. before going on to sire G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches victrix Coeursamba (Fr). Since the catalogue was published, the colt's full-sister Breege (GB) (Starspangledbanner {Aus}), already group-placed at Royal Ascot, was second in the G3 Prestige S.
