\"Lauristons-Brooke-Verwey-Mitchell-leads-the-Snitzel-\u2013-Rapidement-filly-resized\"<\/a>Lauriston Thoroughbreds averaged $170,000 for its yearlings at the Magic Millions and operations manager James O\u2019Brien was also busy keeping count of the farm\u2019s winning graduates over the weekend.<\/p>\n

The Corinella nursery grossed $850,000 for its 5 lots on the Gold Coast topped by a $220,000 filly bought by Victorian syndicator Brad Spicer. She\u2019s bred to fly being by Snitzel and out of Moonee Valley 55 Second Challenge winner Rapidement.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s VOBIS nominated and Brad will bring her back to target all the bonus money,\u201d O\u2019Brien said.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s an impressive filly and is bred on a similar cross to Wandjina.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Lauriston Thoroughbreds sold a Snitzel colt (ex Paramount) to Toby Edmonds for $200,000 plus a Redoute\u2019s Choice filly (ex Show Stealer) that Jason Warren secured for $160,000.<\/p>\n

Show Stealer\u2019s first foal is a 3yo Exceed And Excel filly with the Snowdens named Typecast and she was placed first-up at Hawkesbury during a short prep earlier this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cJason trains the mare\u2019s 2yo filly Conductress. She\u2019s by Commands and Jason was keen to come back for the yearling on the strength of what she\u2019s shown so far<\/em>\u201d O\u2019Brien said.<\/em><\/p>\n

The latest Lauriston Thoroughbreds bred galloper heading to Hong Kong is the
\nNot A Single Doubt filly (ex Five Star Belle) that made $180,000 on Thursday. She\u2019s a three-quarter sister to Warren\u2019s promising 2yo filly The Seductress who won again at Caulfield on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Apollo Choice (Choisir) has showcased the Lauriston Thoroughbreds brand in Hong Kong and he came within a head of winning again at Sha Tin on Saturday. He was placed in a G2 Sandown Guineas before heading off-shore to clients of David Hall.<\/p>\n

The narrow loss didn\u2019t knock the gloss off a wonderful week for the O\u2019Brien family in Australia. They celebrated 4 winners in just 3 days as Godavari (r7 Mackay)<\/a>, Chiavari (r4 Cranbourne)<\/a>, The Seductress (r1 Caulfield) <\/a>and Sette Bello (r1 Mornington)<\/a> kept the roll going from Friday to Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Seductress picked up $79,000 for her win the $80,000 prizemoney race. Being nominated to Super VOBIS and VOBIS Gold, she was able to almost double the usual winning prizemoney for such a race. She has now won a tick over $116,000 with half of that coming in VOBIS bonuses demonstrating the lure of racing a Victorian bred horse.<\/p>\n

After the dust settled on a super start to the sale season, O\u2019Brien\u2019s buoyant mood mirrored the whole industry in his role as TBV President.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Gold Coast was exciting and the results were terrific. The VOBIS qualified lots attracted buyers up there and our vendors have a catalogue full of them coming up at Melbourne Premier as well as significant numbers of lots at Sydney Classic, Adelaide, Tasmania and Sydney Easter,\u201d O\u2019Brien said.<\/p>\n
