The Tattersalls December Sales shape the global Thoroughbred market - and this year’s renewal is one of the most important in recent memory.
In this Final Furlong Tattersalls Special, Emmet Kennedy is joined by Tattersalls Associate Director of Marketing, Jason Singh, for a deep, honest, data-driven look at the market: the polarisation, the firepower, the hidden gems and the broodmares who change everything.

We begin with the state of the yearling market:
• why 2025 was selective but strong,
• how the top end stayed fierce,
• and why the middle market was deeper than many expected.
Jason explains how this will feed directly into this week’s breeding stock sales, and why Kentucky’s intensity has already shifted buyer behaviour in Newmarket.

Then we turn to the Sceptre Sessions, highlighted by:
• Porta Fortuna – Cartier Champion 3YO Filly and global blue-chip broodmare prospect,
• Tamfana, Barnavara, Choisya, Survie, Tiffany – an elite group rarely assembled in a single catalogue.
Jason details what it takes to build a collection of this depth, and how buyers now balance residual value with the upside of producing world-class runners.

From there, we dive into value mares — the bargains that became stars:
• Sunset Park (60,000 gns → G2 winner),
• Sultanina, Sagely, Syndicate, Tidespring, Days of Summer, Zero Gravity, Icky Woo,
and how the December Sale continues to produce broodmares capable of producing Royal Ascot winners, Group 1 stars, and international champions.

We also tackle the high-end market:
• Immortal Verse,
• Quiet Reflection,
• and the seven-figure mares who shape investor confidence and global trends.

Jason breaks down:
• what makes a mare a hidden gem,
• how data, biomechanics and conformation analytics are shifting valuations,
• why smaller breeders should never fear the big stage,
• and which categories are currently underrated and ripe for upside.

From million-guinea superstars to 9,000gns producers of Group winners — this episode reveals why Tattersalls remains the most influential marketplace in the Thoroughbred world.

If you want to understand where the industry is now and where it’s going, this conversation is essential listening.
