Home Affairs a Hot Ticket at Magic Millions Weanling Sale

Tara Madgwick - Sunday May 24

Set to be crowned the most dominant Champion Australian First Season Sire this century, Home Affairs was the sire of the moment at the Magic Millions National Weanling Sale on Sunday with his filly from Cancel topping the sale when fetching $680,000.

Consigned by Coolmore, the striking chestnut is a half-sister to Group I MRC Thousand Guineas winner Madame Pommery and Group III placed Moet Down, so had some impressive pedigree to back up her obvious good looks.

She was bought by Stefan Pardi’s SP Bloodstock, so we can expect to see her re-offered at a major yearling sale in 2027.

Cancel is due to foal again to Home Affairs this spring.
