Blueblood Thoroughbreds Swoop on Tannhauser & Gold Bullion Top Lots Feb (Early) Inglis Digital

Media Release - Wednesday February 5

A pair of Newgate-offered racehorses were the standouts in today’s successful Inglis Digital February (Early) Online Sale.

Tannhauser ($175,000) and Gold Bullion ($160,000) both sold to Blueblood Thoroughbreds and will look to continue racing successfully in the famed red and blue silks over the next number of seasons.

Tannhauser topped the sale at $175,000.

“They’re both really well credentialled horses that we think can provide a great return for us for many more racing seasons to come,’’ David Mourad of Blueblood Thoroughbreds said.

“On his day Tannhauser is a very good horse and his last run was really good. He’s an ideal middle distance/staying type so we’ll give him time to get up over the right trip and get amongst some of that great prizemoney on offer.

“Gold Bullion will remain with Gai and Adrian and he’s just such a consistent horse, we think his best form has been over the mile so we’ll try and place him over the trip. We just don’t think he sees out a really strong 2000m so we’ll target mile races like the $500,000 The Coast on May 10 and then back up the next week into the Scone Cup, which is a qualifier for The Big Dance which is the ultimate goal.

“Inglis Digital is great to buy and sell on. From a buyer point of view it’s easy to navigate and to look up all the information you need, it’s easy to bid and is just a consistent platform and as a seller, it’s super easy to list your ads and with sales every fortnight you can move horses on or shares in horses on almost immediately which is so helpful.’’

Newgate’s Henry Field added: “Tannhauser and Gold Bullion are both well performed horses for us and we enjoyed racing them in our partnerships but having been gelded, it was time for us to move them on.

“We wish the Blueblood Thoroughbreds team all the best with them moving forward and hope they have as much fun and success with them as we and our partners did.’’

The top six lots of today’s sale were all racehorses, which comes as no surprise given the recent success of Inglis Digital graduates.

For the past two Australian seasons Inglis Digital graduates have won one in five Australian races while this year alone the platform has already produced recent Stakes winners like Philosopher (Listed WJ Adams Stakes), Coastwatch (Listed John Dillon Stakes) and Prairie Flower (Listed Durbridge Stakes).

In total the February (Early) Sale grossed just under $3m.

Entries for the February (Late) Sale are now open and will remain so until midnight on Wednesday February 19.

The sale will run from February 21-26.
