With less than a week to enter, the gavelhouse.com August catalogue is shaping into another quality line-up sure to attract plenty of attention. Entries are due this Sunday at 7pm and with the site’s clearance rate second to none in New Zealand’s online thoroughbred sales space, gavelhouse.com is your best bet to ensure a successful result when selling your bloodstock.
Recent gavelhouse.com results include weanlings and yearlings having sold up to $138,000 and $100,000 respectively while racing stock has fetched up to $68,000 and broodmares up to $60,000.
Ensuring there will be plenty of interest in this month’s catalogue, a Tavistock colt entered for Karaka 2017 has been confirmed, promising to pique the interest of pin-hookers while stallion shares and nominations have also been entered.
In another boost of confidence in the merits of our site, Westbury Stud’s General Manager Russell Warwick has elected to use gavelhouse.com to auction a service to their highly regarded son of champion sire Fastnet Rock, El Roca (pictured below) as part of the Daffodil Raceday initiative with proceeds donated to the Cancer Society of New Zealand.
“We are delighted to partner with the Cancer Society and gavelhouse.com as we seek to raise money for a terrific cause, and one which affects a significant number of people involved in our industry,” commented Warwick.
“El Roca received a warm welcome to his stud career in 2015, covering more than 105 mares with a number of very well bred mares included within his book.
“El Roca’s sire Fastnet Rock has created a huge impression as a sire of sires, with his sons Hinchinbrook, Smart Missile, Stryker, Rothesay, Foxwedge and Wanted all making impressive starts to their stud careers.”
You can list your bloodstock for sale for as little as $250 +GST. Entries for the August auction are due online by 7pm on Sunday the 21st of August. The catalogue will be released online at 7pm on Monday 22nd August with bidding running from 7pm 29 August to 7pm Thursday 1 September.
