Sale siblings leading the way

28th Sep 2016

With only six days until the Inglis Ready2Race Sale, relations to many of the Lots being offered have been scorching the turf, further highlighting the strength of the catalogue.

Since the catalogue was finalised, relations to 32 Lots have won races including So Distinct, which won her maiden at just her second start at Mornington today.

The Toorak Toff half-brother to So Distinct will be offered by Wanda Ings as Lot 204.

Leotie has been high in betting for the Group 1 Thousand Guineas since winning two of her three races this campaign in Victoria and her half-brother by Street Cry is being offered by Baystone Farm as Lot 61.

Other notable recent winners of Ready2Race relations include Dinghu Mountain, a half-brother to Lot 7 (Commands x Layette colt, who has won and placed twice in Sydney since the catalogue was finalised, as well as winners in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa.

All the leading stallions are represented including the sires of current season Group 1 winners Winx (Street Cry), Astern (Medaglia d’Oro) and Bon Aurum (Bon Hoffa).

Inglis Managing Director Mark Webster remained confident the sale would live up to expectation.

“This sale has the lot – the leading sires, in-form siblings, progeny from some outstanding dams, great breeze-up times, it really is the greatest ever catalogue for a sale of this type,’’ Webster said.

“With vendors producing such high quality horses and buyers coming from around the world, it’s shaping as a great day for everybody involved.’’

The Inglis Ready2Race Sale will be held at Inglis’ Newmarket complex in Sydney on Tuesday October 4 from 11am.
