Videos from Hawkesbury and Eagle Farm are now available to view ahead of next month’s Ready2Race Sale

Videos of last week’s breezes at Hawkesbury and Eagle Farm are now available to view on the Inglis website head of next month’s Ready2Race Sale. 

50 juveniles breezed at Hawkesbury on Friday with 39 of those breaking the 11 seconds for the 200 metre breeze. 

The quickest of the day was a gelding by Capitalist (Written Tycoon) who posted a time of 10.13 seconds and he will be offered by Black Ryan Racin as Lot 40. 

“When he hit the front, bang, his ears go forward and it shows he was really enjoying his work, he gave me a great feel,” said Ryan of his quickest charge.

“As a group, they all breezed as well as I could have hoped and having shown promise at home, it was great to see them all deliver on breeze day.

“I’m proud of the success that graduates of my draft have had in recent seasons.

“We had four winning graduates in the space of a week at the start of September, including Obfuscation, Different Strokes and Arthur Francis.

“Three of the four were from last year’s draft and all of them look above average.

“We live and die by the success of horses that we produce, so I think people can look at my draft and take confidence that they have been prepared properly for careers as winning racehorses, based on the precedent set by those that have gone before them,” added Ryan.

At Eagle Farm on Wednesday, the draft of Symphony Lodge breezed on the dirt track in preparation for the sale, led by a Headwater (Exceed And Excel) colt out of Leica’s Lass (Pluck) colt who clocked 10.17.

“We couldn’t really have asked for the horses to have gone any better,” said Symphony’s Lodge’s Alison Park.

“With this sale format in mind, we are very particular about the horses that we look to identify through the yearling sales series, so we are delighted with how they have developed and are very much looking forward to the sale.”
