Digital solves the Equation as carnival riches await

9th Feb 2022

Stakes-winning galloper Equation (Press Statement) will be aimed at the lucrative Sydney Autumn and Brisbane Winter carnivals after being purchased by Annabel Neasham and Brian McGuire for $205,000 in the Inglis Digital February (Early) Online Auction.

Equation was offered by Aquis Farm – Racing (as agent) and has won four of his 11 starts, including the Listed Canberra Guineas last year.

“He’s been bought to syndicate amongst some stable clients,” McGuire said.

“He’s a lightly-raced, proven Stakes performer who Annabel knows inside out now.

“He’ll be aimed at the Sydney autumn and even the Brisbane winter carnivals and I’m sure he’ll be picking up more wins in the very near future.

“There are still shares in him available, so anyone interested should get in contact with the stable through Annabel or myself.

“We have bought and sold through Inglis Digital and will continue to do so because it is so easy, efficient and user-friendly.’’

In other results, Parsons Creek paid $175,000 for 3YO Snitzel colt Tidal Creek, a recent winner at Gosford, whilst Yulong Code (Zoustar) was purchased by Horse Feng Bloodstock for $175,000.

It contributed to an overall gross of $2.99 million and 81% clearance in the third Digital sale of 2022.

“It’s been another strong start to the new year for Inglis Digital with $8.5 million grossed already from just three sales,” Inglis Digital’s Business Manager Nick Melmeth said.

“That’s $1 million more than the same period last year and what that does is highlight to both buyers and vendors that the confidence in the platform continues to grow – it’s just a fantastic system.

“There is an insatiable appetite for bloodstock at all levels at the moment and today’s announcement by Racing NSW of prizemoney increases and the introduction of new races such as the $2m The Big Dance – for Country Cups participants especially – is fantastic for the industry.

“There is no better place to buy a Country Cups contender than through Inglis Digital.

“There are more and more of these types of horses making their way into our online catalogues and with these new incentives there really is no better time than now to purchase a share in a Country Cups-bound horse through Inglis Digital.

“Digital buyers aren’t just rewarded on the racetrack either, KBL Thoroughbreds enjoyed a fantastic pinhook result at the record-breaking Inglis Classic Yearling Sale, with a $10,000 Inglis Digital weanling purchase realising $170,000.”

Entries for the February (Late) Online Sale will close at midnight (AEDT) on Wednesday, February 16.
