A massive THANK YOU to all our buyers and under-bidders for their muscle, faith and buying power.
To our owners and breeders’, friends and family: as you all know, it is not a game for the faint hearted. With the highs and lows we face each year with the gauntlet of breeding and trading, we congratulate you on breeding or providing these youngsters for us to raise, prepare and offer.
The team have been absolutely fantastic, and it’s been a delight to have each of them with us this season to go through the process.
Finally, we’re about to kick back, have too much of something delicious and watch the Magic Millions Race night and taking a moment to enjoy a fantastic sale – thank you to all.

Lime Country Magic Millions crop of 2025!
Greg and Jo believe this is one of the best crops of stock taken north under the banner in a number of years. It represents the investment in broodmares that the farm and their clients have made over the past three years as well as some mouthwatering outside additions. Parades for our draft of 14 begins on 2nd January. As always a big effort by the main yearling team - Zoe McGillivray, James Rapley, Beau Mulholland Ashley Podolski Tiarna McDonald as well as parade support from Aoife Crotty Backed up every day by all those still putting in week in and week out with the mares and foals.

We look forward to seeing you on the Coast in the New Year!!

The frame below was sent to us by Magic Millions after our 2020 January offering, for the sale of what at the time, was our highest price yearling ever sold which was then broken the following day. Those two c**ts went on to be the stakes winning HEAD OF STATE and now the very talented, but injury plagued, OUGHTON.

We’re are thrilled for connections of OUGHTON who won the Listed Tattersall’s Recognition Stakes yesterday at Doomben.

Bred by Makybe Stud he was purchased for Spendthrift Farm has now amassed over $980k in prize money. Oughton’s had quite the journey, having been later sold to Hong Kong but returning to Australia following an injury. He was then purchased by Les and Melissa Kelly who have done a great job with him and now have him aimed for the Listed $2 million Magic Millions Cup in January.

The frame was a lovely memento at the time, but is now also a celebration of two stakes winning graduates!

Our January draft of 14 looks like it has some super talent heading to the Coast once again - fingers crossed, god willing and any other thing you can think to add.
