Inglis Ready2Race Sale graduates have been lighting up the tracks in Australia and Asia in recent months.
Inglis managing director Mark Webster and Peter Twomey (Business Development Manager) were in Singapore and Hong Kong recently to deliver DVDs of this year’s breeze ups and catch up on the progress of last year’s successful crop.
“It was great to be on hand in Singapore to congratulate the connections of One United, which when winning on debut became the eighth Ready2Race Sale graduate to win in Singapore this year,” said Webster.
“One United’s owner selected the colt from last year’s DVD and sent his representative down to Sydney to buy it for $72,500. It’s his first horse and has won on debut with plenty of improvement to come.
“Buyers we have spoken to have been full of praise for last year’s graduates and the format of the Ready2Race Sale – bringing together quality young stock from professional vendors, showcased on grass track breeze ups under minimal pressure.”
The eight Singapore winners this year averaged a breeze up time of 11.66 seconds prior to the 2013 Inglis Ready2Race Sale; from Twodollarmuppet at 10.58s on a Good 3 track to Snitzel Spirit which clocked 13.81s on a Heavy 10 rated surface.
