The sale will entail four days of Book 1 (Feb 9-12) – where 808 yearlings have been catalogued – plus the Highway Session (Book 2, Feb 14), which has seen a further 205 youngsters entered.

Wednesday February 13 will be a Highway Race Day at Warwick Farm featuring two Highway Handicaps – one for Country-trained horses and one for Provincial-trained horses.

If the winner of either Highway race is an eligible Inglis graduate (paid up for the current or a former Inglis Race Series), the winning trainer will receive a $50,000 credit voucher to spend at the Highway Session at Riverside Stables the following day.

Inspections for the Classic Sale begin on Tuesday February 5, although many horses will be available for inspection from Monday February 4.
