The one-day Scone Broodmare Sale will be held at White Park, Scone, on Friday, August 27.

The sale falls on the same weekend as a number of the Stallion Open days at Hunter Valley farms and the sale is sure to be strongly attended by breeders in the district for those parades.

The timing of the sale also presents a great opportunity to trade bloodstock on the dawn of the new breeding season.

In just three years, the sale has quickly built an important place on the calendar.

A strong inaugural sale in 2007, where the sale topper made $110,000, has proven a solid base to build on. The sale average has increased each year, with 89% of lots offered sold for a gross of over $1million at last years renewal.

Entries for this year’s sale already include mares by top broodmare sires Zabeel, Snippets, Grand Lodge and Canny Lad in addition to a host of young fillies straight off the track by top stallions Lonhro, Choisir and Danzero.
