Has anyone else had a look at whats on offer and what has caught your eye?
I note two fulls to group one winners are offered is this a first for Perth? In my time I can't remember any going through.

Overall I think vendors and MM have put together a strong product which should meet the market accordingly

I do this because it is my home sale, and for many of the yearlings on offer I have seen previously offered siblings, or in fact so a lot of the mares if they raced in Perth.

Sometimes I am genuinely surprised at the results, and what the market perceptions are when those yearlings enter the sales ring to be sold. Success certainly cannot be defined by what you pay for a yearling, as each year Perth seems to throw up several horses that go on to become quality animals, and almost a certainty that all price ranges were catered for.

So this is about finding those diamonds in the rough. Drop me a line if you are interested in retaining an independent opinion.

Cheers, Damien

This year, like last year, I'm not a participant so I haven't looked at all at it. Has anyone picked out yearlings to watch so far ?

I will be off on my photographic safari during the sales period, so I will be just an interested observer of results only.

First season Sires Awesome Rock at 64, Vert de Grece 60 did well, Lucky Street had modest support at 40 with King's Troop getting just 23 mares. Unfortunately none could be regarded as commercial success stories.

Stallions in decline however were the story of 2017. Gingerbread Man fell from the mid 50's to 32, Ouqba 39/24/16, City Place 58/18/24, Universal Ruler 67/39/22, Trade Fair 71/51/35, Patronize 42/16/19, Planet Five 23/13/5, Hala Bek 54/24/5, Famous Roman 9/39/3, My Atacanta 16/11/2, with All American 26/113/28 and Alfred Nobel 88/112/13 between them dropping almost 200 mares.

Galah would be hoping for positive yearling purchases off the back of 60/40/30, likewise Sessions 55/33/21 and Safeguard 60/45/35.

So as a very rough estimate, the WA breeding numbers for WA  based Stallions, declined by almost 20% last year from the previous year.
