Inglis graduates rounded off a stellar 2014/2015 racing season, having won a total of 189 black-type races internationally. 18 individual Inglis graduates saluted in 27 Group 1 races across the world, with Arrowfield Stud leading the Vendors’ Table having bred and sold three Group 1 winners: Wandjina, Majmu and Hot Snitzel.
With the Sydney Autumn Carnival well underway many Lots have received significant pedigree updates since the catalogue for the 2015 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale went to print in January.
If today’s results are anything to go by it is no surprise that Champion trainer Gai Waterhouse is a stalwart of the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale. Under the guidance of Gai, Easter graduates today too out a Group 1 at Flemington, and both a Group 1 and Listed race at Royal Randwick.
Arrowfield Stud is home to a great many outstanding broodmares, but few have produced four individual stakes-winners.
Halfway down the big Flemington straight in Saturday's $150,000 VRC C.S. Hayes S. 1400m G3 a brave placing seemed the most likely outcome for Dr Edmund & Belinda Bateman's 3YO Snitzel colt Wandjina.
