SYDNEY OWNERS' PARSIMONY
Behind the yearling sales lies a rather disturbing impression that Sydney- owners are not very keen to outlay really big amounts on horses. Because the sales were held in Sydney (according to a Sydney journal); the local buyers overwhelmed the visitors in numbers, and niost of the highpriced lots should normally have_ remained here.- But, of the ,51 yearlings which brought 500 guineas on «the first two days-of the sale, 24 went to interState or overseas buyers. Melbourne owners bought 16, showing that the bigger prizes in Victoria warrant a big outlay on yearlings.
