Wyola (10, Sadler's Wells–Rubies From Burma, by Forty Niner), the dam of G2 Gimcrack S. hero Approve (Ire) (Oasis Dream {GB}) and offered carrying a full sibing to that talented runner, was knocked down to Northern Farm's Katsumi Yoshida in the early hours of trade Tuesday at the Tattersalls Mare Sale in Newmarket. The 10-year-old mare was consigned by Newtown Stud. Yoshida outlasted all potential rivals, including Michael Goodbody and Charlie Gordon-Watson. “She will go to Japan to foal,” said Katsumi Yoshida's son Shunsuke. “We have not decided which stallion she will visit and we may sell, syndicate or race the foal. She is from a good family, and has produced a good horse.”
