BBAG Spring Sale begins Saturday

Europe's Breeze-Up season moves to Baden-Baden's Iffezheim complex on

Saturday as BBAG launch their Spring Sale. Embedded in the Baden-Baden Spring Meeting, the

auction has been boosted by the exploits of graduates Kamsin (Samum), winner of the Albert Von Metzler-Rennen

(Ger-G3) at Frankfurt and a leading

Deutches Derby (Ger-G1) contender; Monday's Mehl-Mulhens-Rennen (German Two

Thousand Guineas) (Ger-G2)

hero Precious Boy (Big Shuffle); and Schwarzgold-Rennen (Ger-G3) winner Peace

Royale (Sholokhov).

Carola Ortlieb, the new managing director of the

auction house, recently announced that the list of vendors has expanded with

Gestut Fahrhof as well as new consignors from England, Ireland and France

attracted to the sale. Of the 150 lots cataloged, which include horses in

training and is appended by a supplementary catalog of 10 lots, the sires

represented include A.P. Indy, Arch, Invincible Spirit, Marju and

One Cool Cat as well the domestic favorites Big Shuffle, Dashing Blade and
