Magic Millions owner Gerry Harvey has a smile as broad as possible after a extremely strong start to the National Sales Series where the first 2 days were dedicated to the Weanlings Section.
Buyers were out in force where the market recorded an astonishingly high 87% Clearance Rate with just 36 lots not finding a new home. Statistics right across the board were up on the proceeding year.
On 237 lots to sell the turnover was a healthy $8.5m for an average of $36,042.
Top Price was on Day 2 when $290,000 was paid for a Fastnet Rock / Sorority Girl colt.
Also on Day 2 highlights of interest to Dynamic Syndications were:
$250,000 Exceed And Excel / Up State filly.
$210,000 Encosta De Lago / Rosa's Spur filly.
$120,000 Exceed And Excel / Undercover filly.
Day 1 had already established the market's strength when $280,000 was paid for a Street Cry filly.
Day 1 highlights of interest to Dynamic included :
$260,000 Fastnet Rock / Native Song filly
$200,000 Fastnet Eock / Mohegan Sky filly
$180,000 Exceed And Excel / County Mayo colt
$165,000 Exceed And Excel / Diamond Masque colt
Again these sales support the demand for the best stallions in Australia based upon the racetrack results of their progeny.
It's certainly no surprise seeing FASTNET ROCK progeny topping the sale especially now he has jumped to a service fee of $275,000 in 2013.
(Champion Sire Exceed and Excel)
The big mover is obviously Exceed And Excel. The current Premiership Leading Sire and multiple times Champion Sire who stands this 2013 season at $88,000 is a Hot Commodity.
Also Multiple times Champion Sire Encosta De Lago continues to demand attention.
Dynamic Syndications purchased Yearlings by these sires in 2013 and they offer excellent value to our owners. Review their website pages and you will be very impressed of the quality of bloodstock we have available.
