Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 4 hours ago Journalists Share Posted 4 hours ago A total of 1,088 lots have been catalogued for the 2025 New Zealand Bloodstock (NZB) National Yearling Sale, which is scheduled to take place at Karaka from January 26-30. The catalogue, which is now available to view online, features 661 yearlings in Book 1 and another 427 in Book 2. Previous graduates of the sale include Mr Brightside (NZ) (Bullbars {Aus}), an eight-time Group 1 winner in Australia, in addition to Lucky Sweynesse (NZ) (Sweynesse {Aus}) and Ka Ying Rising (NZ) (Shamexpress {Aus}), both top-class sprinters in Hong Kong. A full-sister to Lucky Sweynesse will be offered at the 2025 edition of the sale, along with yearlings out of Group 1 winners such as Bonneval (NZ) (Makfi {GB}) and Jennifer Eccles (NZ) (Rip Van Winkle {Ire}). This will also be the first time that NZB has combined both Book 1 and Book 2 into one physical catalogue. NZB's managing director Andrew Seabrook said, “Although they still remain separate sales, it was a request made at a post sales vendor meeting earlier this year, so we thought it was worth doing and advantageous from a marketing perspective to have just one catalogue. “Of all the sales in Australasia this year, Karaka saw the biggest increase in average, turnover and median–that was really encouraging. We're incredibly proud of the New Zealand-bred and Karaka graduate results over the last 12 months.” The post Catalogue for the NZB National Yearling Sale Released appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
