Given the expansion of the Chairman’s catalogue from 66 entries last year to 93 this year, the 2022 renewal will begin at 4.30pm on Friday May 6.

Inglis Bloodstock CEO Sebastian Hutch is struggling to hide his enthusiasm ahead of what he expects will be “another memorable evening’’.

“The Chairman’s Sale is something we have worked exceptionally hard on for a number of years now and the nature of the support for the sale this year is a reflection of its progress,’’ Hutch said.

“The yearling market has been very strong and breeders consequently are reluctant to offer quality breeding stock, so I am beyond delighted with the quality of mares that we have been entrusted with for the sale this year.

“It’s a fantastic catalogue for breeders across all spectrums of the market, whether you are looking at commercial imperatives or focusing on breeding a champion racehorse.

“The dams of the likes of Home Affairs, Loving Gaby, Stay Inside, Shout The Bar, Nettoyer etc were bought at the sale prior to G1 success, so in a short space of time the sale has already established a formidable reputation.

“Our focus when putting the catalogue together is to consider carefully what the market wants, so there is tremendous variety across the book, with 85 of the mares entered are aged 9 or under.

“Despite the pandemic-imposed restrictions last year, the sale was without doubt the most enjoyable auction spectacle of the year and we are looking forward to the 2022 renewal being even more fun and more entertaining.

“There remains an opportunity for a select number of mares to be involved in what is going to be a special night, so if you think you have a suitable candidate, I encourage you to get in touch with a member of the Inglis bloodstock team.’’

Supplementary entries for the Chairman’s Sale will remain open until Friday April 22.
