Frankel filly breaks Irish record

A filly by the brilliant Frankel out of the 2007 English and Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Finsceal Beo has been sold for €1.8 million at Goffs November Sale, a record for a foal at public auction in Ireland.

The foal from Frankel’s first crop was sent from the Al-Eile Stud in Kilgobnet, Dungarvan and bought by Dermot Farrington Bloodstock, of Naas, on behalf of a ‘new Irish client’.

Her sale brings the total generated by Finsceal Beo’s progeny at auction to €5.45m.
