2024 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale

The highly select, two-day Inglis Easter Yearling Sale invariably provides a great opportunity to hone in on some of Australia’s best bloodstock and this year was no exception. Boomer Bloodstock was able to purchase four impressive yearlings on behalf of domestic and international clients.

The Sale made history this year with the presentation of the Pierro x Winx Filly, bolstering the sale with a record $10,000,000 lot. For the 353 lots sold (445), the sale grossed $151m ($139m) with a clearance rate of 79% (85%) at an average of $427,805 ($386,917) and median of $300,000 ($280,000). Irrespective of the reduced clearance rate, the total sales figures exceeded those of 2023.

Lot 63 – Colt, Toronado x Hera

This athletic Toronado colt, Lot 63 was a $350,000 purchase from Gilgai Farm. Out of the dual G2-winning O’Reilly mare, Hera, this colt is a half-brother to Listed winner Herastar and is from the family of 3YO G3 winner and G1 placegetter Zabmanzor.
