Past
Edinburgh Park Magic Millions National Sale weanling drafts have included
Australia's leading first season sire by winners Better Than Ready and smart
stakes-winner Eximius which is all the reason you need to see what they have on
offer at the Gold Coast next week.
"We're all about producing good racehorses that can provide a great result for
their owners," said Edinburgh Park's Ian Smith.
"We sold Better Than Ready at this sale in 2010 for $120,000 and he ended up a
multiple stakes-winner and is now one of the best first season sires in the
country.
"Edinburgh Park raised horses get a great start in life and include Wednesday
metro winners Despacito (Sandown) and Fun Fact (Warwick Farm). It's about
producing quality young thoroughbreds that can do the job for which they are
purchased."
