Lot 56 the Zousain half-brother to Private Harry made $300,000 from Rheinwood Pastoral

Kirsty Willis from Rheinwood Pastoral - Their Zousain x Happy Pilgrim colt made $300,000. A half-brother to Private Harry and a huge result for their farm which is on a roll.

Nick Taylor from Riverstone Lodge - $400,000 for their Hellbent x Miramare colt. Had a long term plan to target the sale with a quality colt, the dam being a sister to Shamexpress, and it paid off beautifully.

Kellie Bond from Kenmore Lodge - Sold their Stay Inside x If You Can Dream colt for $230,000. An easy horse to like, the vibe was good so no surprises he made good money.
