Let’s take a look at the top sellers for each our first season sires that sold for $130,000 or more.


Everest hero Yes Yes Yes had the equal highest price at this sale for a first season sire with his filly from Luluoru making $260,000 for Milburn Creek when bought by Suman Hedge Bloodstock (FBAA)/Redwall Bloodstock.

Microphone shared top honours when his colt from Allure made $260,000 for Vinery Stud when bought by Musk Creek Farm.


Blue Point (IRE) did best with his colt from Full Sun (GB) that made $220,000 for Three Bridges Thoroughbreds when bought by Suman Hedge Bloodstock (FBAA)/Redwall Bloodstock
.


Too Darn Hot (GB) got his best sale with Yarraman Park’s filly from Lusitania that made $220,000 when bought by Bird Rock Farm/McKeever Bloodstock.


Exceedance did best for Vinery Stud with his filly from stakes-winner Loved Up selling to Kiwi based Lansdowne Park for $200,000.


Pierata also had a $200,000 sale with his Newhaven Park consigned colt from Plastered (USA) bought by Bahen Bloodstock.


Top seller for Cosmic Force was Kingstar Farm’s colt from Coral Reef that made $190,000 when secured by Blade Racing.


The Spendthrift Dispersal delivered the best result for Omaha Beach (USA) with a filly from Hanseatic’s half-sister Skagerrak fetching $170,000 when bought by Bahen Bloodstock.


Kenmore Lodge had the top seller for Castelvecchio with a colt from Wynnstay Avenue selling to Suman Hedge Bloodstock for $160,000.


Royal Meeting (IRE) had only one weanling sell, but he was a good colt from Mistress McDowell fetching $160,000 for Silverstream Consignment when bought by Baystone Farm.


Dubious made his mark with a colt from Chit Chat making $150,000 for Kenmore Lodge when bought by Aquis Stallions.


Zousain got his best result with a colt from Melaleuca that made $130,000 for Phoenix Broodmare Farm when bought by a very good judge in Rhys Smith.

Smith purchased Zoustar as a weanling at this sale in 2011 for $85,000 under his Kulani Park banner and re-sold him as a yearling at the Gold Coast for $140,000, so if anyone can find the best Zousain to pinhook am tipping it’s Rhys.
