A half sister to Dubai World Cup winner Monterosso highlights a quality catalogue at the Perth Magic Millions Winter Sale this weekend.

Selling gets underway on Friday at 4pm (WA time) with a session of yearlings, before a selection of racehorses, broodmares and weanlings go under the hammer on Sunday from 11am (WA time).

Korilya Stud’s Ellie Giles will offer an Unreserved Dispersal Sale of Breeding Stock during the two-day auction at Belmont.
