BC3 and Inglis confirm Future Stars sale dates

10th May 2010

On the back of their impressive two-year-old American Crew’s victory at Rosehill on Saturday, BC3 Thoroughbreds have confirmed the details for the Future Stars Preview Day and Sale, to be conducted by Inglis Thoroughbred Auctioneers.

Sunday August 22, will mark the second renewal of the BC3 Future Stars Sale, which will be conducted at Inglis’ Oakland’s complex in Melbourne. Horses will be available for inspection at the complex from Thursday, August 19.

The all important Future Stars Preview Day will be conducted a month earlier on Sunday July 25 at Sutton Grange Farm, Bendigo. The day will afford interested buyers the opportunity to see the horses gallop up the straight followed by inspection parades.

Catalogues will be ready prior to the Sutton Grange Preview Day while DVD’s and online footage of gallop sessions will be available soon after on Inglis TV and at the BC3 website.

Although only in its infancy in this part of the world, the BC3 team have enjoyed stakes success with Deer Valley and Dark Valley as well as promising geldings Dane Babylon and the aforementioned American Crew. In the United States they have produced G1 winners Brother Derek, River’s Prayer and Reraise.

“Our strategy is to select the best athletes as yearlings and prepare them for sale as two-year-old’s using proven world class methods.” said BC3 CEO Bill Vlahos.

“We are committed to develop our Australian operation as the premier 2YO sale in Australasia to service the growing demand for ready made racehorses, particularly from Asia.

“We are delighted to have the services of Inglis who will bring the necessary professionalism and innovation such as online bidding to that process.”
