Bloodstock South Africa: National Yearling Sale

Out of pure laziness i`m just letting Clocking the Gallop start the thread

With the current climate and the lack of confidence in the ANC, can we expect a reasonable sale?
Anyone buying or any fancies, syndication probably the best option.

Good buying

15 and 16 April.

I cant see COVID stuff on the website but am I allowed in for a pint and a pie?

Not sure Mac, possibly the same as church?
250 for indoor, on line best option and need a buyers card.
Maybe someone can clarify.

Kids running about at Greyville, jocks with family and friends at the races

Think there is a secret society being formed, excluding the racing fan!

i am finding the online catalog very clunky,

u click on the lot and when done it shoots u back to the top of the page.

to scroll down/up is not great either.

the CYS page is way easier to navigate.

just an opinion

I agree - page looks impressive, but you can't even sort per sire - not an improvement imo

I don’t have anything on the NYS this year, having sent all my yearlings to the 2 recent CT sales. While it’s clearly a buyers market, and we are still awaiting the EU audit team to clear the way for direct exports, those sales held up reasonably well under the current tough economic circumstances. The NYS catalogue is strong, and well worth a look.
Under the current level 1 restrictions, viewing of the yearlings is open to anyone in the days leading up to the sale, subject to mask and distancing. The sale itself will be subject to numbers restrictions, so you would need a buyers card and a reservation to attend in person. The online bidding and streaming has worked quite well on the earlier sales.
Hard copy catalogues are available for those of us old timers who like to scribble with a pen.
