Well he was disqualified and fined 75K for training horses for one of Australia's most wanted, notorious conman Peter Foster, that qualifies for a wanker medal does it not......paying a kings ransom for a horse? that's sheer lunacy.

Spent $7m so far at the sale which you call a wank. Annabel Neasham has spent $3.5m. Quote

Ciaron Maher spent over $4m yesterday. Gross Sales $40m. Average well up on last year - Up $70k. $200k t0 $270k. Median up too - $150k to $220k. Put them up CS and I'll match with my picks and anyone else who cares to for something to follow. Quote

Joe Bloggs Posted January 12, 2022 Posted January 12, 2022 There were some lovely horses go through, but anyone paying more than a couple of hundred grand for a horse needs a lobotomy. The Sydney Summer shits all over this sale for value for money, buy a real racehorse in SYD, without the trumpets and marching band not to mention the booze of this horse dispersal sale.......inflated prices brought on by hype....... Sydney Easter is the blue ribbon sale, always will be, even after the move to the burbs........Gerry Harvey is always giggling, not hard to work out why. Quote

So where do you rate the Sydney Summer Yearling Sale compared to MM? What you are saying though is that the breeder gets a better return from the MM. Quote
Chief Stipe Posted January 12, 2022 Author Posted January 12, 2022 The MM averages are still heading upwards - the breeders will be pleased. Quote

SYD summer is a buyers sale, good horses at generally good prices, something for everyone, it escapes the hype and media saturation MM gets......you should see all the b grade celebrities up here for the Polo and sales/races........so many locals aren't going Sat, many unvaxxed, and many just over the bullshit.......gimme Cox Plate, Derby Day, any day!

Chief Stipe Posted January 13, 2022 Author Posted January 13, 2022 Another big day at the Magic Millions Sale. Average now over $300k. Quote
Chief Stipe Posted January 14, 2022 Author Posted January 14, 2022 Super sale still holding up. 94% clearance rate!!! Heading towards a quarter of a billion dollars in gross sales. Quote
Joe Bloggs Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 Looking good for Karaka eh Chief? We're missing Steve Davis over here though, he's a Gr1 Auctioneer, some of these blokes put you to sleep. Tell me, why do we not see some female auctioneers? Who do you reckon could do the job? bring a bit of razzmatazz to the sales ring........ Quote

Not so sure - potentially looks good for the K1 but I would say the NZ domestic market is considerably weaker than the OZ market. If I had a K2 yearling that was a good type and knocking on the door of K1 breeding wise I'd be rolling the dice and trying my luck with an Ozzie sale. Quote
Joe Bloggs Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Well well well, Will Clarken has to postpone his trip to Dubai as he is positive, so too apparently are Gerry Harvey and his wife Katie Page, who'da thought the MM would be a super spreader event?..........they were all vaxxed? the Supreme leader of QLD was there too, poncing about, I wonder if she's got a few sniffles this morning? Quote
Freda Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 If they are all vaxed - and one would presume they are - surely, there must be some bright governmental spark who thinks, hang on, this isn't working, how about we change our processes here..? 1 1 Quote
Joe Bloggs Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 Now the chook is opening the QLD border from 22nd Jan to all double vaxxed without fear of quarantine.......as soon as your chook opens the border come on over, the water on the Goldie this morning was 25 and the temp up at Ipswich races is 35.....Freda would love that.

Freda Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 He jests. I dislike that sort of heat....25-ish is about where my comfort zone ends! Our chook has just closed our border completely by the sound of it. 1 Quote
Chief Stipe Posted January 23, 2022 Author Posted January 23, 2022 I guess in the vernacular of one @Joe Bloggs "a lot of wanking went on" at the Magic Millions Raceday on the Goldie. Last Saturday’s Magic Millions meeting on the Gold Coast reached an incredible $77.4m (turnover) up 33 per cent from two years prior. Quote
Joe Bloggs Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 Nah Chief, across the road was the wankfest, the races was a piss up of gigantic proportions, so that explains the turnover, it's easier to seperate a fool from his money when they are full of jumping juice. Quote
