Success Stories - Gavelhouse

Australian Couple buys 2YO Zerpour Filly from NZ
While in New Zealand we contacted 3-4 studs to look at horses that we viewed on Gavelhouse. In our minds if we didn’t have this site to guide us we probably may not have purchased one from there. We did purchase a 2 year old Zerpour filly, from Mr David Lees. He also gave your site a big wrap, as did the other studs we went to.
So, we say thanks to you and your company.

Donna Koitka & Glen Brown, Weipa, Queensland, Australia.

NZTBA South Island Member Leases Filly
Thank you, due to Gavelhouse, South Island Breeders Association and your great assistance I have successfully leased my filly out with a RTP.
I hope to place more horses on Gavelhouse soon. It's a super way in bringing interested parties together.

David Voice, New Zealand

Another International Sale - NZ to Australia
FIDI CENT sold so quickly, I am kicking myself for not using Gavelhouse sooner. The site was easy to use for an Internet newbie like me! The staff are incredibly helpful in the entire loading process. What surprised me was the number & quality of responses in the short time FIDI CENT took to sell. I have made some excellent contacts & best of all - No agents fees/sales preparations/commissions. For me, they are winners. Give them a go.

Another NZ sale to Australia
"Graham Richardson (Richie), a leading New Zealand Trainer placed his first advert on Gavelhouse and has successfully sold a major share of an unraced two year old colt. Without using Gavelhouse's International website, Richie would never have been able to tap into such resources and thus secure his new client who is based in Perth, Australia. Thanks to Gavelhouse and Gary's innovation, the ease of placing an advert and the International profile Gavelhouse is starting to hold within the Thoroughbred Industry, I will be using their services and facilities in the future."
Graham Richardson, Richardson Racing Stables.

Melbourne Cup Winning Trainer Sells Race Mare
"Simple process. Lots of interest from all over Australia. Easy to sell.
We will definitely use Gavelhouse again, particularly for tried horses.".

Stallion - PUPIL - sold to Australia from New Zealand
The ownership syndicate of the stallion PUPIL would like to congratulate the very popular and successful equine trading site, GAVELHOUSE, based in Victoria, Australia, we had Pupil listed for sale through other mediums but GAVELHOUSE produced the most inquires which included countries such as; South Africa (2), Argentina, Brazil (Sth American Bloodstock Agency), New Zealand (5), Australia (multiple) and even a stud in Kenya run by Mr Joseph Muya, Pupil has finally been sold to a breeding venture in Queensland, I fully recommend this great international trading site to everyone in the bloodstock industry.
Stuart Hale, Syndicate manager for Pupil.

NZ South Island Sells Broodmare
I recently advertised some horses to sell from my Stud with Gavelhouse. I found Gary and the Gavelhouse team super to deal with, the process to load stock onto the site is very straight forward and within 24 hours of the horses going on line I had interest from both NZ and overseas. I just sold one broodmare after having her listed for approximately 2 weeks. Marvelous result!!! Recommend the site for everyone and we will certainly be listing more horses with Gavelhouse as a hassle free way of advertising our stock to the world.

"Hong Kong Owner Buys Shares in 3 Horses"
Leading South Australian Syndicators, Richard and Michelle Stafford from Sanguine Racing Services, have sold shares in 3 horses to international owner. This is what they had to say:

"...who would have believed that we could secure 3 share sales from a buyer in Hong Kong, through this newly developed, exciting website. Thanks Gavelhouse".

Stallion SEUL AMOUR sold to South Africa
We listed a stallion for relocation, lease or possible sale on Gavelhouse and promptly had numerous responses which led to a variety of options for us. We were delighted to eventually establish an international sale for this horse which opened up a whole new career opportunity for the stallion, as well as giving us a valuable international connection for the future. We were very impressed at the options that Gavelhouse opened up for us, and have no hesitation in recommending Gavelhouse to people as an ideal place to advertise horses following our recent experience there.
Cathy Webb, Victorian Stallion Partnership

Stallion placed
A note to thank you and the team at Gavelhouse for the wonderful assistance you were able to give me in placing my stallion Publishing. Even though the placement was not made directly from Gavelhouse, I had a huge amount of interest in my horse both domestically and from South Africa. This interest was able to assist me in my strategy to place Publishing as I had then had options that I would not have otherwise had.

I would not hesitate in placing any horse I had for sale on Gavelhouse and would recommend the site highly to any bloodstock owner. Gavelhouse quite surprised me with the coverage it obviously has.

Tony Williams, owner of stallion Publishing

Recent Australian Sale - Online & Sold Within 24 Hours!
We listed our filly by "Beautiful Crown" for sale on your website late one evening (sale price $33,000), it was sold the next morning. Your staff provided effective and friendly service, the old fashioned way. We are new to the internet so we really appreciated your help in the advertising process. Over the last few years, we have wasted a lot of money advertising in newspapers and magazines - with absolutely no results. We look forward to doing business with you again".
Stan & Evelyn Thomas, Yarramalong Park Stud, NSW

Sold within a week!


"I would like to thank the Gavelhouse staff for their professionalism in helping me list my mare on their state of the art website. The mare was sold within a week of listing with no commission payable or middle people to deal with - just a simple transaction between buyer and seller. I recommend that buyers and sellers alike scan the website daily as it is certainly the way trade horses with a minimum of fuss. I have recommended Gavelhouse to my clients for horses they wish to sell".
Lynden Burns, Eagle Ridge Thoroughbreds, South Australia
