People at Classic - Feeling The Vibe

Breednet - Friday February 6

Given the numbers of people and the numbers of inspections it’s fair to say there’s a very good vibe about the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale and Maree McEwan was out and about talking to more of the players on Friday.

Basil Nolan from Raheen - four yearlings including a grey from Chautauqua's family and a Top Ranked.

Brian McGuire from Coolmore - 14 lots highlighting their five Home Affairs who looks set for a big weekend.

James Daly from Bowness - three D'Argento's and a Daumier, with one carrying a Golden Slipper update.

Kerrie Tibby from Goodwood Farm - eight lots. Loving her great moving Harry Angel colt. He’s very popular and he’s not alone.

Matt Scown from Yarraman - 19 yearlings and there's a lot going on! Best to listen in.

Oscar Englebrecht from Alma Vale - 22 horses. One highlight among many, a Stay Inside filly from a big family.
