Broodmares in foal to popular first season sires include a Snippets mare in foal to Spill The Beans and a Dehere mare in foal to Scissor Kick . Foals at foot include colts by Poet's Voice (a half brother to Moonee Valley speedster Go Down) and Cluster , the latter out of a lovely Commands mare back in foal to him. An in-foal mare by Choisir and a well bred young mare by Fastnet Rock are other highlights.
The Racehorses section has a lovely range of unraced or lightly raced young horses by Northern Meteor, Snitzel, Al Maher, Dream Ahead, Rothesay, Master Of Design and two by I Am Invincible .

Regular vendors who have entered horses into this auction on behalf of clients include Lindsay Park Bloodstock, Matthew Smith Racing, John Sargent Racing, Singleton Racing and Matt Dale Racing.
Successful syndicators Australian Bloodstock and OTI Racing are also represented by attractive lots in this sale.
OTI Racing has had great success on the local and overseas stages, especially with its stayers. Australian Group 1 winners MANIGHAR, GAILO CHOP, BRAMBLES and KIBBUTZ head their long roster of stakes performers.
OTI has entered 21 tried horses in various Bloodstockauction.com sales to-date, selling all but three of them for a very healthy 86% individual clearance rate.
OTI's General Manager Shayne Driscoll commented that, "We find the Bloodstockauction.com team very professional and the market value of each horse is invariably achieved, with high bidding activity. As the horses don't have to move from their current locations, it is a very clean stock movement process."
Shayne added that, "Post sale, accounts are settled very promptly and we can trade horses in a timely manner."
Bloodstockauction.com conducts two sales a month in Australia and two in New Zealand, with experienced sales teams in both locations. With a site membership just touching 7000 and growing daily, many more buyers and sellers are experiencing the benefits of trading horses with Bloodstockauction.com.
