Dean Hawkins of Wentwood Grange couldn’t believe what he was witnessing when their Ghaiyyath colt sold for a sale-high $625,000 on the third and final day of the Classic Yearling Sale at Riverside this afternoon.
A filly and a colt both directly targeted at the Classic Yearling Sale to “stand out from the crowd’’ strongly rewarded their owners today as Inglis’ live sales season started on a positive note.
Unbeaten Easter colt Fireball (Snitzel) surged into equal third favourite for the G1 Golden Slipper with a powerful victory in today’s $2m Inglis Millennium at Randwick.
