Inglis

Courtesy TDN AusNZ Juddmonte will offer a trio of mares, two in foal to Frankel (GB) and the other in foal to Kingman (GB), at the Inglis Chairman's Sale on May 6. Consigned by Olly Tait's Twin Hills Stud, the Invincible Spirit (Ire) mare Escapement (GB), a half-sister to Group 1 winners Timepiece (GB) (Zamindar) and Passage Of Time (GB) (Dansili {GB}), the latter the dam of breakout stallion Time Test (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), is carrying to Frankel, as is Lucid Dreamer (GB) (Dansili {GB}). Lucid Dreamer is closely related...

While 2021 marks the end of an era for Australia's Arrowfield Stud, with the last yearlings by its breed-shaping sire Redoute's Choice (Aus) going through the ring, it has likewise signaled the start of another, with young shuttler Shalaa (Ire) getting off to a bright start with his first Southern Hemisphere-bred crop headed by the Magic Millions 2YO Classic winner Shaquero (Aus). Arrowfield will offer yearlings by both at the upcoming Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale on Apr. 6 and 7, and we caught up with Arrowfield's John Messara to...

In 2008, Sebastian Hutch was presented with an opportunity to spend three months in Australia working at Coolmore's Southern Hemisphere base. The Irish native, who hails from Co. Cork, admits that Australia was not high on his list of must visit destinations, but some 13 years later Hutch has become ingrained into the fabric of the Australian industry and now holds the position of General Manager in Bloodstock Sales & Marketing at Inglis, whose forthcoming Easter Yearling Sale is a highlight on the bloodstock calendar. Hutch's experience prior to his...

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...

It may not seem like it as of late, with people confined to their homes or at the very least their own countries, but Thoroughbred bloodstock remains a global currency. Friday's Inglis Chairman's Sale-to be conducted, like its Easter Sale, virtually from the company's headquarters at Warwick Farm in Sydney-is an excellent embodiment of this. The 90 fillies and mares catalogued for the boutique breeding stock sale represent many of the best families both domestically and from Europe and the U.S. And, like at any market-leading sale, the top offerings...

In 2017, the Chairman's Sale was added to the calendar at Australia's William Inglis Co., a boutique event similar in nature to Fasig-Tipton's Night of the Stars, the Goffs London and Champion Sales and the Arqana Arc Sale. The Chairman's Sale was created to present Australian buyers--and, indeed, an increasingly internationally based clientele--the rare opportunity to buy into Australian bloodstock of all ages. Last year's Chairman's Sale was topped by the then 7-year-old MGSP Maastricht (NZ) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}), whose daughter Loving Gaby (Aus) (I Am Invincible {Aus}) had won at...

Last weekend, OTI Racing and partners' Quick Thinker (Aus) (So You Think {NZ}) provided a timely advertisement for Inglis's Easter Yearling Sale, where he had been bought 24 months' previously for $100,000 by Hubie de Burgh, when winning the G1 Australian Derby on the first day of The Championships at Royal Randwick. The Easter sale of 2018, when Quick Thinker went through the ring, looked much different than its latest renewal earlier this week, and the horse is perhaps appropriately named when considering the efforts that Inglis's personnel-as well as...

Within the backdrop of a pandemic that has reshaped the lives of people all over the world, the Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale, kicks off Apr. 7. It will be an auction unlike any witnessed before. A day after an announcement from Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison Mar. 25, further tightening restrictions on public gatherings in response to the coronavirus outbreak, officials at Inglis announced that the Easter Sale would go forward in two rounds, the first as a digital auction only, with round two to take place in conventional...

Stakes-placed mare Tizso Wicked (Aus) (Duporth {Aus}) topped the Inglis Digital February (Early) Online Sale, with Spendthrift Australia picking up the mare in foal to Street Boss for AU$150,000. Rushton Park offered the 8-year-old mare, who placed in the G3 Bow Mistress S. at her final start, having won six races all up. The additional appeal of her being in foal to Street Boss, having recently had her first foal by Astern (Aus), was compelling for Spendthrift. "She obviously has a very deep American female family and there is a...
