Ten Sydney horses in the Melbourne sale is a slap in the face to Victorian breeders.
Hi Stuart

I agree there shouldn't of been a split, there should only be one premium sale and it should of been held in Sydney this year as people in n.s.w have had to travel to Victoria for the last 3yrs. Also as it's an Australian Pacing Gold sale people are well within there right to nominate there yearling's for which ever sale they so choose. I'm sorry that your colt has missed out and hopefully for you it does turn out to be a blessing in disguise.
