Depends I used pounds as the currency didnt change until July 1967.  Not as old as @Huey to remember what time of year the sales were held.

Did a pound = a dollar in 1967?

Bonecrusher, Rough Habit...Pivotal Ten..

So on a value basis you and @Huey should have trained 5 champions by now?

I'm not sure why Pivotal Ten is in the mix.  Hardly done much except win some South Island black type.  Was a risky purchase as a yearling at $15k.

As for Rough Habit he was homebred and raced before he was sold.

On that basis there's bound to be a champion for sale on Gavelhouse.

I don’t know.  I can remember taking my piggy bank down to the Post Office to change the coins but can't remember the exchange rate.  Knowing Muldoon he probably short changed me!!!
