A magnificent selection of potential racewinners. These Sales have provided the winners of no less than 133 three-year-old Classic events since they were established, as 'follows : Derby Winners .30 Oaks Winners 19 St. Leger Winners 31 Guineas Winners 53 The new list of recent winners from previous catalogues includes TAULOCH, bought for 1050 guineas, which established a Dominion Stakes winning record for two-year-olds last season (£4850), and has been a winner at w.f.a. and of 3 Guineas events this term bringing total earnings to £9300; GREY NURSE, winner 1948 Victorian R.C.

The whole of the Leading Breeders in the Dominion concentrate on selling their yearlings at the NATIONAL SALES with the result that these Sales provide Buyers with an extraordinary percentage of winners. With such large fields competing today ONLY THE BEST CAN . SUCCEED, therefore Racing Men in their own interests should buy at the NATIONAL SALES, where annually the progeny of the Best Sires provide the WORLD’S RECORD WINNER PERCENTAGE NEW ZEALAND NATIONAL SALES LEAD ALL OTHERS , Statistics taken out over a period of years prove that almost ONE OUT OF EVERY TWO YEARLINGS sold at Trentham IS A WINNER. Compare the average with the statistics published in Sydney where ONLY ONE OUT OF EVERY SIXTEEN SOLD' IS A WINNER. An Australian. paper published these remarkable figures regarding the Sydney Bloodstock Sales:— “According to statistics only about 50 out of 800 yearlings that are sold ever win a race. Four hundred break down before they have run, and another hundred or so race only as two-year-olds. These figures would mean that of every 800 yearlings sold ONLY 6.22 per cent WIN RACES.” GREAT NEW ZEALAND RESULTS Statistics were then taken out as a comparison in regard to the N.Z. NATIONAL SALES, and these prove that for a period of three years 461 yearlings were sold at. Trentham, and of these 222 were winners, A PROPORTION OF 48.15 PER CENT. It can be confidently asserted that no other yearling sale in any country of the world would show a higher percentage of winners among the horses sold.
