Emirates Park has a strong chance of enhancing its enviable reputation for breeding and selling Inglis sales-related feature race winners when Racingfor Diamonds and Snappy Diamond take their place in Saturday's $250,000 Inglis Classic (1200m) at Rosehill Gardens.

Both raced in the colours of the Coady family, this pair of Emirates Park 2012 Classic Yearling Sale graduates will compete for a first prize of $150,000 in an event with only 14 starters from a catalogue of over 570 Lots.

At pre-post odds of $14.00, Racingfor Diamonds is the most fancied of the pair despite the fact that she is having her first career start in Saturday's highlight. A daughter of Eavesdropper (USA), Racingfor Diamonds was a strong winner of a barrier trial held at Warwick Farm late last month and is fully expected to prove competitive on debut. Snappy Diamond takes her chance following a promising debut third at Wagga Wagga at the beginning of last week. A daughter of Emirates Park's dual Group 2 winning sprinter Mutawaajid, Snappy Diamond is one of four placegetters (from five starters) by a first season stallion who seems certain to register his first victory as a sire in the very near future.

Both Racingfor Diamonds and Snappy Diamond have history on their side. Emirates Park bred and sold yearlings have won at least four valuable Inglis sales-rated events, the majority having been by resident stallions.

Danish Magic (by Danewin), Secret Land (by Secret Savings), Winestock (by El Moxie) and Follow The Till were all bred and sold by Emirates Park before winning Inglis races of the very same nature, a fact that augurs well for the chances of Racingfor Diamonds and Snappy Diamond.

Emirates Park's draft for the 2013 Inglis Classic Yearling Sale Summer Book offers just as much quality as in any previous year and includes an excellent selection of Mutawaajid offspring from the exciting young stallion's second crop. It also includes an Al Maher half-sister to Saturday's Inglis Classic runner Snappy Diamond.

The Emirates Park consignment arrived at the Newmarket sales complex on Wednesday evening and is now available for inspection.
