Ahead of the 2025 Bloodstock SA National Yearling Sale on 10 and 11 April, the TBA complex will be a hive of activity as young horses from around the country start moving into their respective stable blocks. Excitement will build with every arrival, while breeders prepare their reception areas to welcome prospective buyers.

The National Sale moved from the old Milner Park Showgrounds in Johannesburg to the TBA’s Gosforth Park complex in March, 1977. Bloodstock SA has shaped the breeding landscape ever since with a commitment to excellence and integrity.
