Sale Overview

A total of 287 yearlings have been catalogued for the HTBA May Sale, which was held at Riverside last year and rebranded from the old Scone Yearling Sale at White Park for the first time.

This catalogue for this year’s renewal - to held on Sunday May 1 - consists of yearlings by the likes of highly sought-after proven and young stallions such as Extreme Choice, Capitalist, Russian Revolution, So You Think, Shamus Award etc as well as an outstanding first season crop of stallions including The Autumn Sun, Trapeze Artist, Written By etc.

Vendors represented include Coolmore, Widden, Segenhoe, Vinery, Bell River, Kitchwin, Kingstar, Twin Hills and many others.

“This sale continues to provide quality racehorses. In recent renewals alone the likes of Rocketing By and The Bopper and Monegal and Through The Cracks etc have all been offered at the HTBA May Sale and I’ve no doubt there will be many more like them come out of this year’s sale,’’ Hutch said.

“There are several yearlings in the catalogue that were headed for either Classic or Premier etc that had minor setbacks at the time and the vendors decided to give them the necessary time to recover and they will be presented in outstanding fashion at his sale, so I urge all serious buyers to inspect this catalogue very closely.

“Certainly the fact that there are eight Russian Revolution yearlings and two Extreme Choice yearlings alone is a reason for anyone in the market for a good yearling to attend the sale.”
