Positive Start To Karaka

Tuesday, 31 January 2017 21:04

LA finished the first day’s trading at Karaka Premier with a healthy aggregate and average.

Lisa Latta’s purchase of the Snitzel-Just Dancing filly for $300,000 gave the Arrowfield owned filly the distinction of the farm’s top price for the day.

Once again it was very satisfying to see a number of the industries mostly highly regarded judges purchasing yearlings from LA.

China Horse Club returned to acquire the Stratum-Bellabachi filly for $220,000; Guy Mulcaster the Written Tycoon colt for $280,000, and Te Akau, the Savabeel-Baradevi colt for $200,000 and Christopher Grace’s O’Reilly-Irish Dream filly for $130,000.

Features of day 2 trading, which gets underway at 10am, are Per Incanto’s two Premier yearlings, including Jacksstar’s half brother as LOT 426

Professionalism, attention to detail and a warm smile
