Appealing to breeders and investors, a range of broodmares will be on offer including mares with a foal at foot, and in foal to the likes of Santos, Wrote and freshman sire Mr Mozart.

Set to take the reins from his father’s establishment, Kurtis Gillovic is looking forward to the afternoon at their Hamilton-based farm.

“This is a genuine sale, numbers have accumulated quite quickly over the last couple of years, and we are just tidying up the operation to make it a little more boutique.”

“Nothing is going to change here in the future, it’s business as usual,” commented the emerging leader.

“There are 17 yearlings by commercial sires, colts and fillies, some nice trade horses. There’s money to be made.

“We’ve got eight mares with foals at foot and all broodmares in foal will be tested a week out from selling to confirm the pregnancy,” he added.

“With something for everyone, the interest in the Sale so far has been fantastic so we are hoping for a good result, and that these horses will find some nice homes.”
