The August Yearling Sale (13-15 August) takes on a new dimension

As the first sale of the year bringing together the cream of European yearlings, the August Sale is a historic event for buyers from all over the world. In 2021, it hosted the world’s top yearling price, a daughter of Dubawi out of Typique, offered by Haras d’Etreham and sold for €2,400,000 to Charles Gordon-Watson. Both the top priced yearling colt and filly in Europe last year went through the ring at Deauville, and almost 30 lots made €300,000 or more, 85% of which were bred in France.

This year, a unique selection will be offered to an international clientele over three days, punctuated by a superb weekend of racing. The sale will be based around the exceptional Deauville-La Touques race programme:

• Saturday 13 August: the sale will take place over the whole day
• Sunday 14 and Monday 15 August: the sale will begin at the end of the afternoon, with the prestigious Prix Jacques le Marois (Gr.1) taking place on Sunday and the Prix Guillaume d’Ornano (Gr.2) on Monday.
