Starcraft Filly Tops MM QTIS600
Breednet - Media Release - Monday, 22 March 2010

A filly by Star Witness' sire Starcraft has topped the 2010 Magic Millions QTIS 600 Yearling Sale after making $140,000 during the second and final session at the Gold Coast on Monday.

Leading Sydney trainer Gerald Ryan snapped up the attractive youngster (pictured below) , who was catalogued as lot 241.

"She was one of the fillies of the sale," Ryan reported. "She's by a young stallion who's really doing the job."

"She's a lovely type and has a great pedigree - she has a lot of things going for."

"The way the quality horses have sold this year, she certainly looked good value," he added.

"And with her being QTIS 600 and BOBS she looks the perfect buy for me."

Later in the day top Kelly Schweida went to $110,000 for a colt by Snizel, Jamie Bayliss snapped up a Sequalo colt for $107,500 and Bryan Guy went to $100,000 for a youngster by Hidden Dragon.

The sale boasted record figures across all levels with over $7.66 million traded on 346 yearlings a strong clearance rate of over 82 per cent.

The average price of $22,166 was up by an impressive 20% when compared to the $18,424 achieved at the same sale last year.

"It's been a great couple of day's selling and I'm sure buyers would be thrilled with the value they have achieved," Magic Millions Managing Director David Chester said.

"With such great incentives and bonuses linked to the sale, the buyers will be looking back at this sale as one of the best value ever."

"The Queensland buyers, as you'd expect, were the busiest buyers at the sale - but we had good representation from around Australia and also overseas," Chester added.
