New Zealand has again
proven to be a happy hunting ground for Eliza Park with three of its yearlings
proving popular with buyers at Karaka last week.
Although only taking
across a small draft, the Exceed And Excel filly from Baltics – closely related
to Black Caviar – was snapped up by Darley Australia for $300,000 while, in the
Select Session, the God’s Own colt from Sky Watch was purchased locally for
$40,000.
Perhaps the highlight
though was the Northern Meteor colt from Espuela which was corralled by Tony
Pike Bloodstock for $160,000.
The colt was originally
bought as a weanling last June for $40,000 and has managed to quadruple the
investment in a tick over six months … you don’t get that kind of interest from
a bank!
Below are Bruno
Cannatelli’s photos of the Northern Meteor colt.
