13 February 2018 | Gary Crocker, Chairman, Allwood Stud Farm 2018 SA Yearling Sale Committee
In a sale full of blue blooded yearlings, it was fitting that Australia’s Queen of Preparers, Annie Dalton graced the Adelaide Sale ring with her presence.
SA BOTRA (who did an amazing job on the weekend) had a prize for the best dressed handler and Annie won by the length of the straight. In fact she gave the much younger handlers a real lesson. The Dalton horses were presented as good as a yearling could look and many South Australians commented on them and how the yearlings remained so calm and relaxed on a busy day. This is a real credit to the couple that had made the long trip from the breeding heartland in Victoria, Shepparton, a region HRV should be very proud of.
