The online auction for a 12.5% share in champion mare Verry Elleegant (NZ) (Zed {NZ}) came to a close on Monday evening (local time), passing in for NZ$350,000. However, a deal was struck later with the share selling to an existing part owner for an undisclosed amount. Extrapolation puts her projected value at NZ$2.8 million. Offered on Gavelhouse Plus, the share was made available by part-owner Tim Barry.
