There are many other reasons why buyers should have the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale amongst their priorities for 2025, noting the following;

*There have been 21 G1-winning graduates of the Classic Sale since 2018, 12 of whom could have been bought for $100,000 or less.

*A total of 30 Classic Sale graduates have won $1m or more in prizemoney in Australia since 2018.

*There have been 82 Australian Stakes winners of 135 Stakes races (including 42 Group winners) that could have been bought for $100,000 or less from Classic.

*In recent years, Classic graduates have won races like the G1 The Everest, G1 Golden Slipper, G1 Queen Elizabeth Stakes, All Star Mile, G1 Melbourne Cup, The Golden Gift, Inglis Millennium, G1 Blue Diamond, G1 Randwick Guineas, G1 VRC Derby, G1 Lightning Stakes etc.

*The Classic Sale has produced 168 individual winners of 423 races in Hong Kong since 2018 including the winners of all three legs of the prestigious Hong Kong 4YO Series in 2023 and 2024 and G1 winners Voyage Bubble and Beauty Eternal

Inglis Bloodstock CEO Sebastian Hutch urged buyers to “do themselves a favour’’ and get their eyes on the catalogue and to participate in the sale.

“If people are serious about finding value in an extraordinarily competitive Australasian bloodstock market, the Classic Sale never fails to deliver,’’ Hutch said.

“For a sale where the average price of an Australian Stakes winner since 2018 is a little more than $110,000, the quality of horses that continue to come out of this sale defies expectation, year after year.

“Consider results from the sale over the past 12 months alone. A multiple G1-winning mare so good she was acclaimed the best of her sex in the world in Pride Of Jenni, a dual G1-winning colt of the famed Doncaster Mile in Celestial Legend and a 3YO colt in Veight so good he won no less than the G1 George Ryder at WFA, a trio acquired at the Classic Sale for just $540,000 that are now worth many, many multiples of that.

“The knack of the sale for producing top-class horses is why it is so popular with so many buyers – think back to the likes of Choisir, I Am Invincible, Extreme Choice, She Will Reign, In Her Time, Brazen Beau, Yankee Rose, Hellbent, Vow And Declare and Castelvecchio, to more recent stars like Classique Legend, Mazu, Icebath, Pippie, Shadow Hero, Communist, Palaisipan, Coco Sun and others.

“Throw in Hong Kong stars like Voyage Bubble, Beauty Eternal, Hot King Prawn, Super Sunny Sing, Cordyceps Six and the picture becomes very clear – serious buyers cannot afford not to be focusing on Classic in early 2025.

“We have already seen through the likes of high-class early season 2YOs - $1m Inglis Golden Gift winner North England and $500,000 Inglis Banner winner Within The Law, both Classic Sale graduates – that the quality on offer at the sale earlier in the year is exquisite and we are expecting more of the same next February.”

All horses offered at the 2025 Classic Yearling Sale are eligible for the lucrative Inglis Race Series.
