It’s been another enthralling day of bidding action at the Magic Millions Yearling Sale on the Gold Coast.
In Secret’s full sister was the top seller on Day Two, going under the hammer for a whopping $2.3 million.
The filly by I Am Invincible from the top producer Eloping, was the subject of a fierce bidding battle with Chris Waller and Guy Mulcaster, however it was Sydney trainer John Sargent and his owner Ian Moses of the Laguna Partnership who came out on top.
She now sits as the highest selling lot for the auction, eclipsing the $1.8 million paid for Away Game’s first foal, a filly by Written Tycoon.
“I’ve been training for Ian – a fellow Kiwi for a long time and he’s now building a broodmare band,” trainer John Sargent said.
“You’ve got to buy the best and I think this was the best filly in the sale today.”
“She probably has a bit more size than In Secret but a similar temperament and to buy a full sister to a Coolmore winner is very hard to get,” he added.
“A good investment in the long run and hopefully we can get some black type for her.”
In total, buyers have already splashed over $97.5 million across just two days of sales, with an average price of $277,145.
Day Three will commence at 10am this morning.
