Rare White TB Fetches $270,000
HorsePoint - March 2008
A Newcastle syndicate, including rugby league great Andrew Johns, Magic Millions director John Singleton and Newcastle trainer Kris Lees, have
purchased a rare white yearling filly at this week’s Magic Millions yearling sales.
The Zabeel filly, who is a three-quarter sister to the legendary Might And Power, created a storm at the sales with bidding opening at $100,000. The Sale ring was packed to capacity with onlookers standing 12 deep to catch a glimpse of the rare white thoroughbred. She is one of only 17 white thoroughbreds in Australia and there are only a little over 100 world wide. Nicknamed Spook by stud staff the filly will officially be called Bluetongue.
