We were very satisfied with our selection and the sold rate above 60%. The collaboration with Afac is solid and the entire Auctav team enjoys working with sellers and buyers in this international market. We are obviously very happy with Nijinska Al Maury’s top price following admiring her family’s exploits on the track. We thank Renée-Laure Koch for her trust and we congratulate Saubouas Bloodstock, Lisa and Pierre Deymonaz for this choice purchase. This sale once once more demonstrates that the auction fully plays its role on exceptional lots and allows higher prices to be achieved than amicable offers. »
Lisa and Pierre Deymonaz continue to invest

These are breeder clients who rely on a limited but very high-end mares. They have been looking for this family for several years to integrate them into their workforce. The broodmare is a very beautiful and young mare. Madj Al Arab seems to be an interesting father of a mother. She is in foal to Jalnar Al Khalidiah with a good due date. One of the best families in the world was acquired here, following an exceptional year in terms of results on the track with No Reply Al Maury, Nour Al Maury and Norma Al Maury. It was a unique opportunity for this extremely vibrant lineage. Nijinska will join the mare farm of Haras du Saubouas. » Saubouas Bloodstock is also behind the purchase of Mansoura Al-Cham (Azadi) for €40,000: “I acquired this broodmare for Patrick Lombrail from Haras de l’Aigle. She is a very beautiful mare, signed by her father Azadi. This strain is great with Amira Al Chame, Al Nachmiya, etc. It’s a living family. The broodmare, in foal to the excellent Al Mourtajez, has a good due date. She will be very easy to cross paths with in the future, which makes her all the more interesting. »
