Bloodstockauction.com’s NZ Sale Has Plenty of Australian Connections

Media Release - Friday January 20
The launch last night of Bloodstockauction's 15-strong New Zealand auction has several lots of particular relevance to Australia.

Bloodstockauction.com's Lot 9 is an unreserved yearling filly by BULLBARS, an Elusive Quality half brother to young Darley sires, HELMET and EPAULETTE. With his oldest progeny only 3 year olds, he has already produced stakes placed Sicario and Mongolianlightning as well as several other winners from his first crop of three year olds. This filly is a half sister to Sydney Group 2 winner FIRE SONG .

Another very attractive yearling filly (Lot 8) is by Group 1 winner producer ROC DE CAMBES from the family of AJC Champagne Stakes winner, I LIKE DIAMONDS .

Broodmares include Lot 4, a young daughter of NO EXCUSE NEEDED, sire of AJC Oaks winner DAFFODIL , already the dam of a stakes performer, one of two black type horses produced to-date by No Excuse Needed mares.

Lot 6 is a perfect meld of Australian and New Zealand breeding. She is by top class broodmare sire FUSAICHI PEGASUS, damsire of seven Group 1 winners including Golden Slipper winner CAPITALIST . This mare is out of a half sister to TELESTO, BONANOVA and FRATERNITY . She is being vended by Regal Fern Lodge. They have five mares in the auction, four in foal to their young stallion LITTLE WONDER, a Group winning son of top class NZ sire, VOLSKRAAD.
Lot 12 - Cool Runnings
In the Racehorses section there is a 4 yo gelding by REDOUTE'S CHOICE's stakes performed son, TOBIQUE. Lot 12 is a half brother to a stakes performer and this gelding has already won over 1950m in 5 starts. He is an attractive staying proposition.

Remember JIMMY CHOUX? He won the ATC Rosehill Guineas, as well as a further four Group 1 races in New Zealand. His oldest runners are three and include Group winner MANOLO BLAHNIQ and two stakes placegetters.

Jimmy Choux's unraced 3 year old daughter Choux Envy (Lot 13), a half sister to Group placed Shining Light , is on offer. Out of a winning DANEHILL mare, she has a very realistic reserve.

VRC Australian Cup and VRC Melbourne Cup winner SHOCKING is represented in the auction by Lot 14, a lightly raced, placed young mare. Shocking has already produced a Group 1 NZ Oaks winner in FANATIC .

Bloodstockauction.com's New Zealand sales have been very popular with Australian and local NZ buyers alike. The Bloodstockauction.com NZ team is growing - their mission is to visit every farm and racing stable in New Zealand to introduce them to the benefits of their proven online method of buying and selling Thoroughbreds.

The auction runs until 7pm (5Pm AEST) next Tuesday evening. Go to Bloodstockauction.com to view the catalogue.
