Leading thoroughbred nursery Cambridge Stud has again committed its full support to NZB’s 2027 National Yearling Sale, with the announcement they will be selling 100% of their yearling stock at Karaka.

Karaka 2027, which marks the next century of yearling sales in New Zealand as the 101st National Yearling Sale, will be selling from 24 – 28 January at Karaka.

Cambridge Stud has a long and rich history of selling yearlings, dating back to their debut at Trentham during the 1978 National Yearling Sale, with Sir Patrick Hogan at the helm and Sir Tristram’s inaugural crop on offer.

Almost five decades later, now Stud Principals Sir Brendan and Lady Jo Lindsay, continue to ensure the renowned Cambridge Stud legacy lives on proudly at the National Yearling Sale.

NZB’s Managing Director Andrew Seabrook is looking forward to the next chapter of the National Yearling Sale, with the full backing of breeders and vendors.

“The selections process is in full swing and our team has been busy inspecting almost 2,000 yearlings across the country.”

“After a remarkable 100th National Yearling Sale, we look forward to building on those results and continuing to cement Karaka as the best week on the sale calendar with the cream of our yearling crop.

“Cambridge Stud’s commitment that they will be selling 100% of their yearlings at Karaka again is incredibly positive for our industry and ensures this Sale is preserved as our flag-bearer with the best stock on offer.”

The catalogue for Karaka 2027 will be available online and in mailboxes from late November.
