The ongoing success of the Premier Yearling Sale was again to the fore in 2018, with four individual Australian Group 1 winners coming out of the sale – Santa Ana Lane, Written By, Seabrook and Youngstar.

Only the Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale produced more individual Group 1 winners in Australia last year.

A total of 786 horses - 514 in Book 1 and 272 in Book 2 – have been catalogued for the sale.
