As bidding opens for July (Early) Online auction

Group One-winning superstar Funstar (Adelaide) headlines the catalogue for the Inglis Digital July (Early) Online Sale, which is now open for bidding. 

A total of 268 lots have been catalogued for the auction – 93 racehorses (44 race fillies), 103 broodmares (53 offered in foal), 15 yearlings, 36 weanlings, two stallions and 19 shares.

Funstar, winner of the 2019 Flights Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) at Randwick among an outstanding racetrack career that saw her win $1.14 million in earnings from five victories and five minor placings – including three at Group One level – is the headline act. Bidding on her has opened at $1 million. 

The four-year-old mare is the most high-profile horse ever offered on a digital sale and is sure to attract the attention of all the major breeding operations from around the world.

Inglis Digital's Business Manager Nick Melmeth is delighted to be offering another high quality catalogue.

"While Funstar is obviously a standout, there is a bevy of quality race fillies and broodmares in foal on commercial covers, the demand for which is exceptionally strong," Melmeth said.

"For those looking more at racehorses, the Inglis Digital platform continues to provide exceptional opportunities for buyers, with almost 1900 Australian winners coming this season alone."

Bidding for the Inglis Digital July (Early) Online Sale closes from 12pm Wednesday, July 14.
