The Tasmanian Magic Millions Yearling Sale on Monday was topped by a lovely Capitalist filly from Sunrise Yellow that made $115,000 for Grenville Stud.
She is the third foal of well related Fastnet Rock mare Sunrise Yellow and was knocked down to Peter Morgan/Gall B’stock.
“I have waited all day for her,” Morgan said moments after the hammer fell.
“I’ll probably miss my plane, but they said they’d give me a bed.
“She was all I was coming for as I wasn’t coming to the sale, but Graeme McCulloch rang me three times and said, ‘you’ve got to come for this filly’, so I thought I’d come down and have a look.
“I jumped on the plane, had a look and we’ve ended up with her. This is my first time in about five years that I’ve come down for the sale.”
