Australian Pacing Gold would like to thank all the wonderful breeders, owners and consignors that have come forward to support the APG NATIONAL MIXED SALE set down for late July.

Many APG clients/partners are of the view a successful NATIONAL MIXED SALE to support consignors and investors/breeders looking to strengthen their breeding operation is essential for the sport going forward.

The APG NATIONAL MIXED SALE, which will be operated similarly to an e-bay style auction (with the added backing of a help desk), provides the safest and most cost effective way to trade some of the very best Standardbred families available in this country..

APG is delighted to announce all categories of horses have been accepted into the sale, including broodmares, racehorses, yearlings, weanlings and a commercial stallion.

The number of entries (120) that have been accepted, have a marvellous representation of leading sires and broodmare sires. With some from the best families currently racing throughout the southern hemisphere.

When we spoke to an APG representative today, he went on to say ”The sale is full of exceptional horses and we are forecasting some very spirited bidding. The tremendous news for the buyers is that close to 100 lots in the sale have reserves of $10,000 or less. These low reserves are simply the result of consignors understanding the best way to sell their lots is to put them up for genuine sale with little or no reserves”.

APG have been trusted with 11 much loved mares of WA breeding legend Harry Caparara, which will be sold under the banner, Estate of Harry Arialdo Caparara. These mares will have the honour of leading off the sale.

Investors, breeders and owners looking to invigorate their stocks should register early for this wonderful event which will we would hope to have the catalogues prepared in sufficient time to allow the auction to run from Monday, 22 July through to around 6pm on Sunday, 28 July 2019.
