The Inglis Digital May (Early) Online Sale saw significant activity, headlined by the sale of a share in top-tier stallion Extreme Choice for an impressive $540,000. The share was purchased by Steve Morley of Glenlogan Park, who emphasized the stallion’s remarkable track record and long-term breeding potential. With several elite mares already in their stable, Glenlogan is positioning itself to capitalize on the stallion’s promising future.
Extreme Choice has rapidly built a name for himself among the industry’s most elite sires, despite being younger than many of his peers. His ability to produce high-level performers, including Group 1 winners, continues to attract interest from serious breeders. The simplicity and accessibility of the Inglis Digital platform also played a key role in facilitating this high-profile transaction.
From the seller’s side, the China Horse Club expressed satisfaction with the outcome, seeing it as a testament to the stallion’s growing value. The organization welcomed Glenlogan Park as a co-owner, underlining the strength and credibility they bring to the breeding partnership. The online format provided a smooth and well-promoted sale process, offering maximum visibility for the asset on offer.
Another highlight of the sale was the four-year-old mare Glade, currently in foal to Home Affairs, who was secured by Ascend Thoroughbreds for $250,000. Cavallo Park Stud, the vendor, noted the mare’s quality and the appeal of her pregnancy, which contributed to the strong sale result. Praise was also given to Inglis Digital for maintaining a reliable and efficient marketplace that supports both buyers and sellers.
Further success came with the mare Acquired, in foal to Shinzo, fetching $160,000 and selling to Riverstone Lodge. This mare was part of a consignment from Highgrove Stud, which offered six lots on the day, successfully selling five. Highgrove’s team highlighted the valuable assistance they received from Inglis’ operations staff, which contributed to the day’s achievements.
Other notable sales included Fierce Dragon at $150,000, and both Appin Opal and Leading The Way, each bringing in $100,000. These high-value transactions pushed the total gross of the sale to over $4.7 million, underlining the strength and vibrancy of the current market.
Looking ahead, entries are already being accepted for the Inglis Digital May (Late) Sale, scheduled to take place from May 23 to 28, with the entry deadline set for May 21. With momentum building from this early May session, expectations remain high for another successful round of trading.
