Inglis CEO Confirms Strong Support
Inglis Bloodstock CEO Sebastian Hutch highlighted the overwhelming support for Easter 2026 from Australia and New Zealand’s leading breeders.
“The success of the 2025 sale and positive sentiment around Inglis has meant that the support for Easter 2026 has been incredible,” Hutch said. “The sale has been full since entries closed in September, and the quality across stallion lines, female families, and vendor profile is extraordinarily strong.
“There are over 75 yearlings entered that are siblings to or progeny of Group 1 winners. The catalogue will be bigger than in 2025, offering more opportunities for buyers. Despite the strength of the previous sale, 104 yearlings could still have been purchased for $200,000 or less. Inglis Easter continues to be the best yearling sale in the Southern Hemisphere.”
The final catalogue for the 2026 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale is expected to be released in mid-January.
