The Baden-Baden Sales & Racing Festival in mid-October is by now a fixture in the German Racing Calendar, just like the BBAG Autumn Mixed Sales embedded in this meeting. The catalogue for this mixed sale can now be viewed under www.bbag-sales.de. The premium session of the sale is set for Friday, 19th October to start at 5.00 p.m. after the races.

Mario Hofer GmbH is offering an Areion yearling colt (lot 65) as a three-parts-brother to the multiple Group winning top sprinter Smooth Operator and two further Stakes winners. Stiftung Gestüt Fährhof''s consignment includes a Lomitas filly (lot 54) from the family of the champions Monsun and Majorität which looks to be an interesting broodmare prospect just like Gestut Brummerhof's four-year-old, dual winning Big Shuffle filly Best In Show (lot 31) as a half-sister to the Group and Listed winning Best Walking and Best Joking.

The second part of the sale will start at 10.00 a.m. on Saturday, October 20th and entries for the supplementary catalogue will be accepted until October 11th.
