Spending spree continues at Inglis sales

Wednesday 10 April 2019, 7:52pm

The million-dollar yearlings kept coming as the Australian Easter Yearling Sale closed out two days of selling on Wednesday.

Completing 48 hours of record trading at Inglis' Riverside Stables, eight yearlings fetched at least $1 million.

Eleven yearlings topped seven figures on Tuesday.

The top-priced Lot during the second session was a colt by Exceed And Excel, sold on behalf of Tyreel Stud.

Out of a Group Three-winning mare, the colt made $1.7 million and was knocked down to prominent stud Aquis Farm.

Legendary stallion Redoute's Choice also figured on the millionaire's list with two Lots selling for $1.3 million and $1 million.

Aquis also purchased a three-quarter brother to five-time Group One winner The Autumn Sun for $900,000.

A colt by champion sire Snitzel out of the speedy Ichihara topped the sale, fetching $2.8 million on the first day.
