  • A Note from Adam - 20th January 2012


    Happy 2012 to you all. It was good to see a lot of buyers at the Magic Millions, although some were missing saying that as Melbourne Premier is such a good catalogue they would wait , as it is a trainers’ sale. Always good to see the median rise 10% at the first sale, there were some lovely types and buyers had money to spend , it just depended to what level they were prepared to bid! The new ladies incentive for a bonus of 500k to the first runner past the post in the MM 2 year old race 2013 was a real plus I thought and added a new dimension to a late Christmas present. I am a new fan of twitter and seeing what information comes through, it is made for racing and breeding. I certainly would recommend people to follow trainers, journalists and others. If anyone is going to Box Hill for Chinese New Year, you can find me in stall 29 trying to encourage some positive good will for the year of the Dragon into breeding champion thoroughbreds as of course we were the ones who sold Black Caviar in 2008. Have a look on our website Swettenham.com.au at the Sirecam footage of Black Caviar parading as a yearling before the sales, what an althlete.
