Gordon Elliott spent over €1million as he purchased seven horses at the Tattersalls Cheltenham December Sale.
The Co Meath trainer's new recruits include recent point-to-point winner What's Up Darling, who cost £280,000.
The five-year-old won by 13 lengths at Quakerstown on the same day as Teahupoo landed the Hatton's Grace at Fairyhouse for Elliott.
