Steve Davis is an auctioneering genius, if I am selling he is the only one I want and if I am buying I want him locked in the toilet!!

Nearco 125 Report post Posted January 26, 2016 Steve Davis is pretty good, but let's not forger Joe Walls. His auctioneering is a delight to watch. he managed the Frankel colt quite well, imho. modest mouse 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Roustoby 292 Report post Posted January 26, 2016 Sky in parts of the Waikato is down. All the channels are the same. Steve Davis is great and Andrew Birch is outstanding. He has forgotten more about the game than most people know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayar 114 Report post Posted January 26, 2016 Hi everyone, since just before 6pm some of our channels have been unavailable due to a technical fault at our Albany broadcast centre. We've got all hands on deck to get this sorted as quickly as we can. The majority of our channels are still available however about 30 are currently affected. I'll update you as soon as I have any developments. Sorry to interrupt your viewing! ^Max @ SKY This was on Trade Me forum earlier tonight........ elbow 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midget 4,489 Report post Posted January 27, 2016 Fantastic on the sizzle but not quite there on the sausage, but nonetheless a great entertainer on the rostrum. Note he got subbed off with about 8 to go last night, just before the Frankel colt. That speaks volumes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They auction in lots of 10, so no subbing, you will notice if you watched the screening, until it cut out, every 10 they change to the next auctioneer.

Canelo 459 Report post Posted January 29, 2016 Even so you can still orchestrate it to allow your number 1 auctioneer to be on the top lot. I like the young guy too(name escapes me) he is good and a really friendly bloke. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The potential buyers are not people you can Steve Davis (the best) extract additional bids from. Just like horses different people have different views, as too the best austioneer, but all I know is talking with breeders the most common theme is "I hope Steve Davis sells my horses". They get him to the Oz sales as well, the man can sell. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
