Early Chairman's Entries Set 2021 Tone

The early entries for the 2021 Inglis Chairman’s Sale have set the scene for another outstanding renewal of the prestigious event, which in 2020 was the most successful of its kind in Australasia. In the past two editions of the Chairman’s Sale, the average price for race fillies and race mares is over $545,000, while three of the four highest-priced pregnant mares sold at public auction in Australasia in 2019 and 2020 were sold at the Chairman’s Sale. Eight fillies or mares have sold for $1m or more in that same time including Maastricht who sold for $2.25 million in 2019 and In Her Time who sold for $2 million in 2020, a record Australasian price for a breeding proposition of her age. Inglis Bloodstock Consultant Harry Bailey said: “The Chairman’s Sale had an amazing feel to it in 2019 and while last year’s was held as a virtual auction due to the pandemic, the results were still phenomenal and we can’t wait to build off the back of that success again this year. The tailored promotion for each and every lot in the sale sets an exceptional standard in the promotion of bloodstock and we are really excited by the 2021 Sale, which promises to be the best yet.’’
