Francis-Henri Graffard sent the teenage Group 1 winner Vertical Blue (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}) through the Tattersalls ring as the penultimate Scepter Sessions lot (1770A), and she duly earned 3,200,000gns from John Stewart's Resolute Racing bid by bidding online. Bred by Haras du Mont dit Mont in Ireland, the heroine of the G1 Prix Marcel Boussac comes from the Sea The Stars (Ire) mare Krunch (GB). Second dam Spinacre (Ire) (Verglas {Ire}) won the Listed Flame of Tara Stakes and finished third in the G3 Prix Imprudence. Paul Nataf signed the eventual Gemini Stud and Argella Racing runner's ticket last year for €50,000 from Arqana's Yearling Sale in August.
The highest valued two-year-old in France, Vertical Blue, sold for 3.2 million gns at the #tattsdecember Scepter Session.
