Karaka 2008 has the makings of the most successful yearling sale ever staged in New Zealand.

Last year a fresh format, worldwide racetrack success and renewed industry confidence all played a valuable part in providing record receipts to vendors - up nearly $20 million for fewer horses sold from the previous year. 

This year the foundation has been laid and New Zealand has a spectacular platform to build another record-breaker. Derby dominance around the world, week-after-week success in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia and elsewhere, and a proud reputation for raising superior athletes, will all convince buyers that New Zealand is a world class source of world class thoroughbreds.

Plus this year again all yearlings sold will be eligible to enter the 2009 Karaka Million - the richest juvenile race in the country - where even the vendor gets a slice of the one million dollar prize pool.

Enter your horses now for the Premier, Select, Carnival and Festival Sales at Karaka 2008 and take your place in New Zealand's supreme yearling showcase.
