Boutique’s high-end mares in standalone sale
A unique group of broodmares will be offered in a standalone Inglis Digital auction next week as part of a Boutique Thoroughbreds dispersal.
The ‘Boutique Thoroughbreds Standalone Sale’ will feature Group winner Shoko (Sebring) (in foal to Home Affairs), proven producer Urban Rocket (Fastnet Rock), the well-related Oh My Mimi (Snitzel) (in foal to Capitalist), Charge Forward (Red Ransom) mare Face Forward (in foal to Spirit Of Boom), and multiple Group winner and Group 1-placed mare Avenue (Anabaa).
All five lots will be offered unreserved to dissolve the partnership.
“The traditional breeding stock sales are just around the corner, so to have a group of mares like this to bring to market is a fantastic opportunity for us and for buyers,” Inglis Digital’s business manager Nick Melmeth said.
“Shoko is a beautiful mare who gets good-looking stock and the talk around the Home Affairs foals is incredibly positive.
“Avenue is a proven producer from an outstanding family, while Urban Rocket and Oh My Mimi are young mares with plenty of upside in their respective pedigrees.”
Boutique Thoroughbreds’ Andrew Dunemann said: “It’s been a build-up of five years to get to this stage but a change in circumstances means there is a great opportunity for industry players to purchase quality stock that would not have presented to the market this early over the next month.’’
The catalogue will be live from 3pm on Friday at inglisdigital.com. Bidding will open at 9am on Monday, April 15, and the final countdown of bidding will begin from 4pm on Tuesday, April 16.
