Hot Lots Day 3 – Magic Millions

Breednet - Wednesday Jan 14

With Extreme Choice having seven sold through the ring so far averaging $840,000 highlighted by a sales equalling top price of $2m for Kingstar Farm’s colt, the Newgate Farm based stallion only has three to sell on Thursday, which could see Snitzel or I Am Invincible hit the lead on averages.

Extreme Choices Leads On Average Sale Price After Day Two Of The Magic Millions

With 14 yearlings having sold at an average of just over $400,000, Anamoe leads the first season sire ranks, and with a further five to sell on Thursday, it will be interesting to see if that trend continues.
