What an opening day to the 2017 Gold Coast Magic Millions!
Three outstanding purchases join the Dalziel Racing team.
We kicked off early picking up Lot 19 for $145,000, a cracking chestnut filly by Golden Slipper winning champion SEBRING out of a 4-time city winning mare. This filly is from the same family as top liners GREGERS and GIRL GUIDE and heads to the same trainer of those recent stars in the all conquering Lindsay Park Stable of David and Ben Hayes and Tom Dabernig
Less than half and hour later we secured what we believe to be an absolute classic filly in Lot 33, a Bay/Brown filly from exciting first season sire EPAULETTE – a $1m earner himself and a half to Caulfield Guineas winner and now stallion HELMET. This big powerful filly is out of the 6-timer Group 3 winning NZ mare Fromelles and was secured for just $80,000! This beautifully put together filly heads to South Australia to join the stables of Phillip Stokes and was one of the finds on Day 1 of the 2017 Magic Millions Sales on the Gold Coast.
We rounded out the days buying with Lot 85, an athletic colt by champion stallion Sebring, from the family of AINT SEEN NOTHIN, BACHMAN and STEPITUP…. and Dalziel Racing’s own AMERICAN GENIUS and BRING ME THE MAID
At $90,000 we think we got this colt for well under his value and are thrilled to see him go to Caulfield Cup winning trainer Ciaron Maher!
Stay tuned for information on these exciting acquisitions from Day 1 of the 2017 Gold Coast Magic Millions Sale!
