This year the ban was lifted. The HKJC purchased eight yearlings for a total of $2.1 Million. Among them, purchased for $420,000 was Lauriston\u2019s Lot 411 by Street Cry out of Street Smart.<\/p>\n<p>The HKJC place strict criteria on any yearling they purchase. It is a credit to the Lauriston team that they picked up Street Smart\u2019s colt.<\/p>\n<p>Lot 186 (pictured) was Gold Edition\u2019s first filly &#8211; by Encosta De Lago. Greg Eurell\u2019s bid of $520,000 secured the filly for David and Carol Kirby. Just \u00a0a week earlier the industry had been saddened by the passing of the Kirby\u2019s Cox Plate winning mare Pinker Pinker. Greg Eurell reported to TVN &#8220;Gold Edition was the iron horse. She competed at the highest level and was unbelievably tough so if this filly has a little bit of mum in her, I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;ll have some happy times ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It would be tremendous if this filly could provide the Kirbys with some of the enjoyment that Pinker Pinker gave them and some of the thrills that Gold Edition provided to Lauriston.<\/p>\n<p>Amarazetti\u2019s filly by Red Ransom (lot 37) did not reach the desired reserve. She has arrived home safely and appears destined to race in the orange and green.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year Lauriston had sold all eight yearlings presented at Melbourne\u2019s Inglis sale and all seven yearlings at Magic Millions Adelaide sale. The success at all three sales can be attributed to the dedication and hard work of Lauriston Thoroughbred Farm\u2019s managers Paul and Kathy Eden and their team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lauriston Thoroughbred Farm\u2019s yearling sales for 2012 concluded on a successful note at Inglis Easter sale in Sydney last Thursday.
