The catalogue is now available online for the Inglis Chairman's Sale with 93 race fillies and broodmares assembled for this year's renewal. 

Included in this year's catalogue are 53 fillies or mares that are black type performers or producers and 24 mares that are totally free of Danehill (Danzig) blood. 

A number of high profile lots have already been announced for the sale including Shout The Bar (Not A Single Doubt) and Daysee Doom (Domesday) while the sale will see mares in foal to Australasia's leading sires as well as three mares from Juddmonte in foal to Frankel (Galileo) and Kingman (Invincible Spirit) offered at the sale which will be held at Riverside Stables on May 6. 

Given the expansion of the Chairman's catalogue from 66 entries last year to 93 this year, the 2022 renewal will begin at 4.30pm.

Inglis Bloodstock CEO Sebastian Hutch said: "The Chairman's Sale is something we have worked exceptionally hard on for a number of years now and the nature of the support for the sale this year is a reflection of its progress. 

"The yearling market has been very strong and breeders consequently are reluctant to offer quality breeding stock, so I am beyond delighted with the quality of mares that we have been entrusted with for the sale this year.

"It's a fantastic catalogue for breeders across all spectrums of the market, whether you are looking at commercial imperatives or focusing on breeding a champion racehorse.

"The dams of the likes of Home Affairs, Loving Gaby, Stay Inside, Shout The Bar, Nettoyer etc were bought at the sale prior to Group 1 success, so in a short space of time the sale has already established a formidable reputation.

"Our focus when putting the catalogue together is to consider carefully what the market wants, so there is tremendous variety across the book, with 85 of the mares entered are aged nine or under.

"Despite the pandemic-imposed restrictions last year, the sale was without doubt the most enjoyable auction spectacle of the year and we are looking forward to the 2022 renewal being even more fun and more entertaining.

"There remains an opportunity for a select number of mares to be involved in what is going to be a special night, so if you think you have a suitable candidate, I encourage you to get in touch with a member of the Inglis bloodstock team.''

Supplementary entries for the Chairman's Sale will remain open until Friday April 22.

Following on from the Chairman's Sale will be the Australian Broodmare Sale, for which 189 mares have been catalogued for the auction on Sunday May 8.

This year's catalogue features mares in foal to some of Australasia's leading sires as well as mares in foal to first season sires.
