Mark Smith - Sunday April 8

After a solid week of inspections, potential buyers from around the world have been wined and dined in a magnificent new complex at Warwick Farm and now it's time to get the show underway for the defining sale of the year, the 2018 William Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale.

The cream of the nation's yearling crop is set to go under the hammer over three days beginning with 130 lots on Monday afternoon. Such is the quality, it's a difficult task to narrow down a selection of likely top lots. The following are some of the bluebloods that have impressed the top judges on the ground.
