On the other end of a transaction

MULTIPLE premiership winning trainer Joe Carbone is set to be a nervous observer during Australian Pacing Gold’s Sale in Sydney.

No stranger to buying classy performers, Carbone will be on the other end of a transaction on Sunday.

The South Australian horseman will make the long trip to Warwick Farm to oversee the auction of a yearling he bred.

By champion sire Art Major, the well-bred filly will ‘go under the hammer’ as Lot 581.

Carbone’s offering is the first foal from former top mare Tact Hayleys Delight, which was retired with earnings of $300,736 thanks mainly to her 16 wins.

Successful in the Group Two Sibelia Stake in 1:52.7, Tact Hayleys Delight was also triumphant at Group level in features such as the Baby Bling Stake.

A daughter of Bettors Delight, Tact Hayleys Delight’s family is littered with top shelf winners such as Tact Tate, Tact Lizzie and Awaywiththefairies.

Delving right back into the family, the yearling comes from the same line as the great Tactile.
