Inglis Chairman's Sale: Lots of American Interest

In Tuesday's TDN, William Inglis Co.'s General Manager of Bloodstock Sales and Marketing Sebastian Hutch reflected on the results of the company's very successful Australian Easter Yearling Sale last month and took a look ahead at this Friday's Chairman's Sale, in which bloodstock professionals from all corners of the globe will have the opportunity to buy into some accomplished bloodstock.

Amongst the 90 lots cataloged to the sale, to be conducted digitally, are pedigrees featuring runners familiar to an American audience, as well as several with European connections. To follow are brief pedigree notes on five mares in foal to some prominent and well-performed Australian sires.

Lot 3, Radharcnafarraige (Ire) (12, Distorted Humor–Extraterrestral, by Storm Bird)

Winner in Ireland of the G3 Coolmore Stud Fillies' Sprint at two and the G3 Ballyogan S. the following season while under the care of Jim Bolger, Radharcnafarriage is related to four stakes horses, including the stakes-winning Alienated (Gone West), dam of SW & GI Woodward S. runner-up Rally Cry (Uncle Mo) and the dual Grade I-placed Alienation (Rock Hard Ten). The 12-year-old mare is the dam of the stakes-placed So Serene (Aus) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}), an A$650,000 Easter yearling in 2015 who fetched A$540,000 in foal to Sebring (Aus) at last year's Chairman's Sale; and California Rad (Aus) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}), who won on his Class 3 debut Wednesday at Happy Valley in Hong Kong (video). Radharcnafarraige is offered in foal to Exceed and Excel.

Pregnant for her first foal to the now-retired Not A Single Doubt (Aus), Collection Privee's dam is a full-sister to leading sire Tapit, MSP Overandabeauty (Grand Slam) and to the dam of MGSW Madefromlucky (Lookin At Lucky).
