MAGIC MILLIONS - JANUARY - GOLD COAST http://www.goldcoastturf.com.au/FRIDAY 6TH JANUARY The Magic Millions Bundall Sales Complex will be home to
over 1800 finely bred yearlings throughout this carnival week. The “world
famous” Conrad Jupiters Magic Millions Yearling Sales will be held over eight
days, commencing on Thursday 12th January at 11am and continue through to
Friday 20th January 2006 . Eight winners and two placegetters in the last seven days
of April underlined again what a prolific source of winners the former
dazzling American sprinter Beautiful Crown, a resident at Andrew and Lasca
Bowcock's Alanbridge Stud in the Segenhoe Valley near Scone, has become. At the same time the continued success of this son of
noted Danzig racehorse and sire Chief's Crown adds to the appeal of the
Hunter Valley Breeders' Yearling sale to be conducted by William Inglis &
Son at the Scone sales centre on Sunday, May 22. He has the biggest
representation in the 200 lot catalogue, contributing 11 lots including eight
from the home stud. His winners of last week are among over 100 that
Beautiful Crown has had in the four crops of racing age he has been responsible
for since he was imported by a syndicate headed by the Bowcocks in1998.They
have included winners up to Group1 level, progeny successful in Sydney,
Melbourne, Brisbane and Avondale (NZ) , earners of over $2.4 million in
2003-04 and of 90 races and $1.3 million in the current racing through to the
end of April. At the same time he has proved the most reliable source
of BOBS bonuses for 2004-05, leading the list with 24 cheques to April. This
is another good reason for buyers to look to his yearlings and others in the
Scone catalogue as more than half, including all the Beautiful Crowns, are
BOBS qualified. Among the other sires with four or more lots booked into
