Media Release - Thursday July 18
Entries are now open for Australasia's leading horses in training sale, New Zealand Bloodstock's Ready to Run Sale of 2YOs, to be held on 20 & 21 November. Breeze Ups will take place at Te Rapa Racecourse on 21 & 22 October.

The 2019 Sale is set to build on its renowned reputation as being the preferred destination for international buyers to secure the best bred, and prepared, juveniles available in Australasia. NZB's Ready to Run Sale results outperform neighbouring Sales on key measures including aggregate, average, median and clearance and the performance of its graduates is second to none.

In fact, NZB's 2018 Ready to Run Sale delivered results that outstripped those in Australia – delivering 36% more revenue to vendors at a 17% stronger average than both Australian 2YO Sales combined.

And in the current six seasons, the Sale has produced an unrivalled 19 Group One wins and 140 Stakes wins with graduates excelling in New Zealand, Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Macau. The Sale also continues to produce an outstanding record of Derby winners and classic types with graduates having won 5 Derbys and 13 Guineas over the same period.
