The 2010 Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale has kicked off at Belmont and the team from BC3 Thoroughbreds have made their presence felt early by purchasing a lovely More Than Ready filly for $230,000.

The first lot catalogued for the sale, the filly was offered by Oakland Park Stud, acting as agent, and attracted plenty of interest when she kicked away the state’s premier thoroughbred event.

The Westspeed and BOBS eligible youngster is from the stakes winning Bletchley Park mare Ebony Magic and hails from a black type filled family.

Her dam is a sister to Most Secret – the stakes winning dam of star black type winners Covertly, So Secret and Secret Link.

BC3’s Sales and Industry Liaison Manager Simon Marshall said the filly was a real stand out and was a must for his team.

“She’s a lovely filly – one that will be very suited to the BC3 program,” Marshall said.

Marshall said the filly impressed BC3 founder, American based John Brocklebank.

“We have a grading system and she was just one level off the top and we think in three months time she will be there,” he said.

“She is going to make into a lovely breeze up prospect later in the year.”

The first session of the sale continues at Belmont with a total of 110 lots catalogued to go under the hammer.
