Share in Say You Will fetches $30,000 on Magic Millions Digital
A share in recent Magic Millions The Debut (1000m) runner-up Say You Will (Pierata) has been snapped up for $30,000 by one of the country’s leading racehorse owners via Wednesday’s Magic Millions Digital.
The 20 per cent share offered by Munce Racing, as agent for an international client, was purchased by Neil Werrett of Werrett Bloodstock, who held off seven other bidders.
“Absolutely thrilled with the results we achieved on the Magic Millions Digital platform this week,” trainer Chris Munce said.
“The support from Magic Millions Digital was fantastic and the results really do speak for themselves. A great outcome for our owners and our stable.”
Another Munce Racing offering, a 20 per cent share in Saxon Spirit (Saxon Warrior) sold for $13,000.
The top seller by price in the sale was Lord Momo (Contributer), a Western Australian maiden who sold to Perth trainer Brandon Fiore for $50,000. The son of Contributer (High Chaparral) was second at his only run to date at Bunbury in December, when he steamed home from tenth at the 400-metre mark to finish under a length behind winner Chino Bay (Maschino).
“The platform is great,” Fiore said. “I love buying tried horses and the platform is so easy to use. Charlotte [Geoghegan, Magic Millions Digital sales coordinator] is a big reason why I purchased the horse.
“She originally contacted me and pitched him to me and that was probably the difference between me pushing hard to buy him or not. The team behind the platform is sensational.”
Other vendors who successfully sold horses in the sale include Ciaron Maher Racing, Roll the Dice Racing and Mt Hallowell Stud.
