Danetime colt tops Magic Millions

Last updated: 10/10/06 8:40 PM

A two-year-old colt by Danetime, selling as Lot No. 65, attracted an offer of

A$121,000 to top the Magic Millions Perth Horses in Training Sale Tuesday at

Belmont, West Australia. The bay, produced Marooned mare Famous Friend, was

consigned by Startribe as agent. He was one of 51 lots sold on the day for an

aggregate A$1,707,500. The average of A$33,480 was up over 17 percent on last

year's figure of A$28,526.

Though disappointed by the 62 percent clearance rate, Magic Millions managing

director David Chester remained upbeat.

"The two-year-olds who breezed up well this morning were the subject of

strong interest," he said. "There were buyers from around Australia and overseas

in attendance and they enjoyed a magnificent Perth day and picked out the

youngsters they liked."
