Valachi Downs General Manager Gareth Downey is pleased with the level of enquiry and number of parades the farm has hosted ahead of the final countdown on Friday.
“I believe there is something for everyone in this current sale,” said Downey.
“Trainers and syndicators with clients looking to invest, that don’t want to wait for the next round of major sales, should definitely be paying attention to what we have in this sale.”
