The best to come out of the Inglis Premier Sales

Feb 24, 2022

The Inglis Premier Yearling Sale has become one of the leading sales on the sales calendar, which is why TRL are thrilled to be heading there this year to hopefully purchase some future stars. 

The Premier Sale has been a constant source of star racehorses for buyers over a long period, from the likes of Sacred Kingdom, Starspangledbanner and Black Caviar, but it has been in more recent years that its reputation for quality graduates has developed even further.

It is the sale that has produced the World’s Best Sprinter in Nature Strip and one of his biggest rivals in Masked Crusader. Young stallions Ole Kirk and Written By have come out of this sale, along with Gytrash, Santa Ana Lane and the great Hey Doc. Since 2018, the  Premier Sale has produced 19 G1-winning graduates, and since 2019 graduates from the Premier Sale have won 20 of Australia’s Open $1m+ races, more than any other individual sale in the Southern Hemisphere. 

Nature Strip, the World’s Best Sprinter, has now earned over $16 million in prize money and has won an impressive 19 races from his 35 starts, including 7 Group 1s. The 7yo gelding continues to perform at his best, most recently winning the 2021 TAB Everest against a hot field. 

You just never know, the next Nature Strip could be waiting for us at this year’s Inglis Premier Sale.  Check out a highlight reel of some of his best wins below:

Or perhaps we will find the next Ole Kirk for owners in The Racing League! Check out his impressive win in the Group 1 Golden Rose below:

This year’s catalogue is truly remarkable and we look forward to bringing you all the action from the Inglis Premier Sales as we try to find you the next Nature Strip!

The best to come out of the Inglis Premier Sales

Feb 24, 2022

Cool Jakey was the King of Warwick Farm  on Wednesday and NSW Tycoons owners would like to package the Metropolitan track and just take it wherever Cool Jakey goes after he kept his undefeated record intact. 

It’s remarkable that ‘Jakey’, trained on track and stabled across the road with Joe Pride, is one of those athletes, albeit of the equine kind, who thrives on his home ground. 

He won on debut at Warwick Farm way back in February of 2023 and the love affair hasn’t ended, Cool Jakey has now won 4 from 4 at ‘The Farm’ and there’s plenty more wins in store for your son of Pierro.

BOUNCE BACK FACTOR 

As Tycoons were made aware of, there’s a theory in racing that when a horse suffers from cardiac arrhythmia, “you must back it next start” and they win. 

And that was certainly the message after Cool Jakey suffered cardiac arrhythmia the previous start at Randwick, with Joe Pride telling Tycoons in the pre-race late mail, “Don’t worry about what happened last start, the horse is fine and he looks great,” how right Joe was with Cool Jakey leading all the way.

HIPPO FROM BARRIER TO BOX

Adam Hyeronimus was having his first sit on Cool Jakey and he rode him a treat. We joked before the race “just go to the front and improve your position” and that’s exactly what he did. 

“He jumped well and found a nice rhythm straight away, he had a nice time so I let him slide early into it at the 600metres so we did go a bit early. 

“He felt fantastic throughout the run and was doing it easily, so I did get a bit of a surprise how quickly he stopped. 

“So maybe I did go too early, but in saying that, maybe seven furlongs is his upper limit. On that effort he’ll be winning again” Jockey Adam Hyeronimus said.

JOE DELIGHTED

“That was good guys” trainer Joe Pride said, with a big smile to a large contingent of NSW Tycoons on Cool Jakey returning to scale. 

“Look it was nice to see him win on a track that wasn’t bottomless wet, it opens up a lot more opportunities for him. 

“In saying that if there was a 1400m for him in a fortnight on a Good track I would probably be reluctant to start him. We need to nurse him through it and the next month – six weeks isn’t going to be easy because it’s carnival time.

WHATS NEXT – PACK YOUR BAGS

The Tycoons have been very patient with Cool Jakey and their patience has been rewarded. He is building a very nice career record which stands at only 13 starts for 5 wins and a minor placing and is now pushing the $200,000 in prize money. 

‘Jakey’ has initially pulled up well, but we all know that he is a delicate soul and has to be treated with kindness and Joe is reluctant to push him too hard too quickly. Which is fair enough. 

“We might even consider travelling him maybe to Melbourne or Brisbane for a wet track, we just need to look after him.

“He’s been a good horse for us, we will look after him and his best opportunities will come in the Winter,” Joe concluded. 

Congratulations to all NSW Tycoons and winning connections.

Go you good thing!
