    Big price, needs to win a few races, anything is possible though.

    In comparison a couple of Henderson’s auction sales purchases with JP.
    2020 Jonbon won PTP by 15 lengths sold for 570K seems to have done ok.
    2024 Minella Premier won PTP by 12 lengths sold for 400k, not raced since.

    Golden Current is certainly an oddity, as neither his sire nor his dam ever ran in a NH race. He’s actually bred well enough to be a useful staying horse on the flat.

    We all know what Golden Horn achieved, the dam was a 12F Listed winner in France, running in the Wildenstein colours.

    When his breeder sent him to Goffs as a 3yo unbroken store, he failed to reach his reserve of £30,000.

    And he has a half brother by Harry Angel who made his debut in a 5F 2yo maiden for Brian Ellison last year and ended the season with a handicap mark of 62.

    Not the usual profile of a future NH star!
