A brother to Hong Kong star Lucky Sweynesse, sisters to Orchestral and Prowess and a half-sister to emerging star Aeliana are among those who will be offered at next year's Karaka Yearling Sale.

Just days after its record-breaking Ready To Run Sale, New Zealand Bloodstock released the catalogue for its prized offering, which will be held from January 26-30.

The catalogues, which are now available to view online, contain a selection of 661 yearlings in Book 1 and another 427 in Book 2 and for the first time ever NZB has combined both Book 1 and Book 2 into one physical catalogue, which will be available shortly.

"Although they still remain separate Sales, it was a request made at a post sales vendor meeting earlier this year, so we thought it was worth doing and advantageous from a marketing perspective to have just one catalogue," added Seabrook.

"After the record-breaking Sale last week, we are looking forward to seeing that momentum roll into Karaka 2025.

"Our team will be busy establishing the best buying bench possible from all markets."

More than 100 sires are represented in the catalogues, headlined by local stars Savabeel and Proisir, Australia's top sires I Am Invincible and Snitzel and the legendary Frankel.
