The Tattersalls Online Sept. 15 Sale catalog has been published and can be viewed at here. A total of 27 horses have been entered in the seventh sale conducted on the Tattersalls Online platform, led by a breeding right to freshman sire Time Test . The sale will also feature a diverse range of Thoroughbreds with proven form on the flat and a selection of breeding stock and 2-year-olds.

Time Test made a strong start to his stud career with 25% black-type performers to runners from his first crop of 2-year-olds. The son of Dubawi  is the sire of Ireland Incentive Scheme Dick Poole Fillies' Stakes (G3) winner Romantic Time  and the unbeaten German Zukunfts Rennen (G3) winner Rocchigiani . Other top performers include listed winner Tardis  and the Alpha Centauri Debutante Stakes (G2) runner-up Sunset Shiraz . A multiple group 1-placed, dual group 2 winner, Time Test stands at the National Stud and covered his largest book to date in 2021.

Other highlights of the Tattersalls sale include the lightly raced 4-year-old Endured, who broke his maiden impressively by three lengths on his most recent start at Kempton for Marco Botti. Awarded a Timeform rating of 96p for that performance on only his third lifetime start, the well-bred Shamradal gelding is out of the group 2 runner-up Wadaat  and will be consigned by Brickfield Equine on behalf of Ben Wong.

Highlights among the breeding stock on offer include a trio of broodmares consigned by Highclere Stud, with the listed placed Pivotal  mare Kelowna  joined by the well-related Royal Whisper, a daughter of the group 2 winner Never A Doubt , and Toomer, a half sister to the Windsor Castle winner Hototo  and to the dam of three-time group 3 winner Who's Steph . The sale also includes yearlings by Profitable  and Galileo Gold .

Bidding on the Tattersalls Online September 15 Sale will open at noon Tuesday, Sept. 14, and close at noon Wednesday, Sept. 15.
