09 Apr 19

“Buy the one you want” is a catchphrase often quoted at the yearling sales and repeated over and over again. This is exactly what the team at Dynamic Syndications did at the 2019 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sales when we struck early, before the market had time to settle into its rhythm.

Snitzel x Frictional Account (IRE) Filly at Arrowfield Stud prior to the sales

This filly was conceived under the terms of a FOAL SHARE and was offered for unreserved sale as per the terms of Foal Share Agreements.

We had valued this filly highly, based upon an excellent commercial pedigree, outstanding genetic success, excellent residual value, quality conformation, clean x-rays and a clean endoscopic report.

However with the added advantage of being aware that the filly was a foal share and contractually having to be sold in the salering, we were convinced this filly could slip through the net and represent outstanding value.

When the hammer fell for $150,000 + GST we were truly astounded at the sensational value we had secured for a high quality filly.

Our latest recruit prior to being offered through the Inglis Sales Ring

The service fee for Snitzel is $220,000 and here we have secured a fabulous filly, clean on x-ray and scope, by Australia’s Champion Sire, from a Champion Irish Mare who also raced with distinction in Australia and she’s closely related to a Champion Racehorse in Hong Kong, for just 75% of the current SNITZEL Service Fee!

That’s what can happen with foal shares at auction and why we always endeavour to locate foal share yearlings at the sales.

Later in the day, after 200 Lots having gone through the sale ring and with one hour left in the sale on Day 1, Snitzel has had a colt sell for $2.8 million and another for $1.1million and a filly sell for $1 million.

From 13 Lots to Sell his Sale Statistics are: (Note: He has the Sale Topper at $2.8 million)

Gross $8,335,000, Top Price $2,800,000, Average $641,154, Median $400,000.

This is compared against the total Sale Average of $381,022 and a Sale Median of $280,000.

Arrowfield Stud, the vendor and one of the two parties to the Foal Share, acknowledged that they believed that she was a “steal” and advised that they would be happy to “Buy-Back” a 10% equity in this filly to race in co-ownership with the Dynamic Syndications team.

Naturally we were delighted to hear their confidence and have happily welcomed them to the team.

At this early stage, a trainer hasn’t been allocated and documents will need to be submitted to Racing NSW for approval before a price per share is determined.

However if this fabulous filly sparks your interest don’t delay giving Adam Watt at Dynamic Syndications a call on 02 9540 1511 or 0409 464 378 and have a chat with the view of being one of the first to hear about the filly when the time comes to release her into the market.
