A huge influx of yearlings is Rockhampton bound after an estimated 22 were purchased with that intent at the Gold Coast on Monday.
This represents a record in that arena from the first session on Monday’s Magic Millions March QTIS Yearling Sale.
Some $691,500 was outplayed for them when 160 yearlings sold for a gross of $7.45 million.
This brought about a grand first days result with a record average of $47,175.
In a bold expression of his confidence in Rockhampton racing, Gracemere’s Colin Bell topped the CQ brigade with a $105,000 buy.
Description
I m pleased to offer this cracking type of colt by the very good young son of Commands in Epaulette. This colt is out of Honolulu Lass, a well bred mare by Hinchinbrook from the Group 2 winner Velasco.
I loved this colt from the moment I first saw him as a foal at Yarraman Park in the Hunter Valley. He has always had presence and this was evident at this year s Magic Million s Gold Coast Sale where was the 12th last horse to go through the ring. I m certain this cost the breeders as he would have been more expensive earlier in the sale.
