'Frankel lookalike' bought by billionaire Sheikh Mohammed for £2.8m as racing's transfer window hots up

Sheikh Mohammed bought Frankel's son for £2.8m at Tattersalls Sales. Frankeel is the most expensive yearling sold anywhere in the world this year. He was bred and sold by composer and theatre legend Andrew Lloyd Webber and his wife, Madeleine, at their state-of-the-art Watership Down Stud.

Sheikh Mohammed paid £2.8 million for Frankel's son at Tattersalls Sales. Andrew Lloyd Webber and his wife sold him to Bill Farish. Another Frankely colt was bought for £ 2.4 million by MV Magnier and American-based White Birch Farm. The same combination also spent £1.5 million on a daughter of the super stallion. Over £60 million has been spent on horses at the Tatteralls so far. The average price for each horse sold was £350,000. It is the time of year when the horse sales, which can be likened to the transfer window in football, really hot up.
