5 August 2003

New Zealand Bloodstock has announced that a dispersal of Norelands Stud's broodmare band will take place at this month's Spring Bloodstock Sale at Karaka.

The Cambridge based Norelands Stud property is in the process of being sold, with the current owners having made a recent decision to disperse all bloodstock over the coming months, beginning with the broodmares at the Spring Sale.
