The catalogue for next month's Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale is now online, with 168 high-class juveniles featuring for a sale which comes with the attraction of the new £250,000 Craven Royal Ascot/Group 1 Bonus.

A £125,000 bonus will be paid to the first Craven Breeze Up winner of any of the six two-year-old races at Royal Ascot. An additional £125,000 bonus will also be paid to the first Craven Breeze Up winner of any of the 15 European Group 1 races open to two-year-olds.

“The combination of the new £250,000 Craven Royal Ascot/Group 1 Bonus and the £15,000 Craven Breeze Up Bonus makes the 2021 Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale a compelling prospect for owners,” Tattersalls chairman Edmond Mahony.

"We are committed to rewarding owners in as many innovative ways as we can and a quality Craven Breeze Up catalogue, well supported by Europe’s leading breeze up consignors, as well as unprecedented bonuses, provide the perfect ingredients for owners, especially in the current climate.

"The Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up has always been a prolific source of top class two-year-olds and they stand to be rewarded like never before in 2021."

The breeze session will be held at Newmarket Rowley Mile on April 12 with two days of selling to follow on April 13 and 14.
