A big congratulations to Inglis who managed to pull the sale together under seriously tough global conditions and the pressures of both vendors and buyers all providing opinions on how it should run! But in this case the best result was shared and the sale a big success under the outside conditions presented.

$1million I Am Invincible filly f rom Srikandi Our sale was topped by the I Am Invincible X Srikandi filly selling for $1 million to Andy Williams Bloodstock. The second foal of a superstar race mare, she was always going to be high 6 figures, just whether in the current climate she could go on to crack the million! 

 
The I Am Invincible X Serene Majesty was another star of the draft who realised $650,000 to Marie Yoshida. With a real racehorse attitude throughout the preparation, she will be trained by Peter & Paul Snowden, who trained her mother throughout her career. 
 
Other results from the sale were $350,000 for the daughter of Wiener by Vinnie selling to First Light Racing/Busuttin Racing/ Paul Willets.

The Snitzel X I'll Fly Away colt sold for $450,000 to Bon Ho, while the Snitzel X Colour Drops filly made $300,000 to Portelli Racing.

Our Capitalist X No Looking Back filly was one of the buys of the sale for Peachester Lodge selling for $100,000 on the first day. 
 
Mick Malone was wrapped with the sale considering the conditions, "To crack a million dollars for the Srikandi filly was huge, we purchased the filly last May and while I know we definitely got the horse product right, the economic conditions and uncertainty couldnt have been worse!" 

"For me it was just so frustrating to have 6 really nice horses that would of just thrived at Riverside and people would of gotten around more and more and under normal conditions could of rolled on in value even further!
 
"But a huge shout out to our team here, Kate and all her staff the horses couldn't have looked any better, that was probably the most frustrating thing not being able to showcase that hard work further!

"However Inglis did an incredible job putting the sale together and how they handled it all was seriously professional and gave me confidence as both a vendor and a buyer which is often difficult to do in a digital environment!"
