In particular, the Auction was a resounding success and all the monies raised on the night (in excess of $100,000) will be directly used for the Microsurgery Foundation’s research.

You have conducted the auction at the Caulfield Cup Calcutta in an exemplary fashion for many years. You extract a pool of approx. $40,000 with very entertaining remarks and accurate auctioneering. In the opinion of most people at the Calcutta you are the finest auctioneer we have ever heard and there are many real estate and country people who attend the auction.

Race Against Dementia
Wednesday, 26 April 2017
Race Against Dementia is a charity founded by Formula 1 racing legend Sir Jackie Stewart
A lunch was recently held at the Hawksburn restaurant Bistro Thierry to raise funds and awareness for Dementia which his wife Helen suffers.
Sir Jackie sent a note in appreciation….
“Phil de Fégely is quite an auctioneer; he is fast and furious and gets the audience well pumped-up. He did a great job for Race Against Dementia, which is my charity, to raise funds for dementia. He was wonderful!”
All my very best wishes.
Yours sincerely
Jackie
