LIBERTAD was a $210k #InglisReady2Race purchase from the Nolen Racing draft, secured by @archibaldracing back in 2022. The son of Russian Revolution has gone on to become a Stakes winner at two, three, four and five - a consistent black type performer, highlighted by G1 glory in the Winterbottom Stakes. He has banked almost $1.7m in prizemoney, more than eight times his purchase price.
#InglisReady2Race graduates earn 45% more than the Magic Millions equivalent. View the catalogue via the link in our bio now.

What a clash! The #InglisEaster star AUTUMN GLOW (The Autumn Sun) for @cwallerracing proves too strong for the #InglisDigital queen Sheza Alibi, running the quinella in the G1 Winx Stakes @aus_turf_club. Autumn Glow is a $1.8m purchase for @ArrowfieldStud and @TheHermitage6 from @silverdale_farm

WATCH: When cattle grazier Fred Noffke bought a Saxon Warrior weanling filly through #InglisDigital for just $10,000, he was looking for a winner and a mare he could breed from down the track. He didn't know he was buying a champion.
In 12 months, that $10,000 purchase - Sheza Alibi - graduated from the quaint racetracks of Central and North Queensland to the 'big league' of Melbourne and Sydney.
On the cusp of Sheza Alibi's return as a 4YO, we travelled to Fred Noffke's cattle property in Goovigen and to @moodyracingpgm and @kscoleman's Pakenham stables to bring you this special story.

The Valuation Catastrophe Nobody's Talking About.
Australia has roughly 7,000 property valuers.
The new tax rules require valuations of around 4 million residential investment properties—before you even count commercial and industrial.
Do the math: 571 properties per valuer.
The queues will be insane. The delays catastrophic. The system will collapse.
Treasury had one job: think it through. They didn't.

This is pure economic vandalism.
@AlboMP & @JEChalmers ‘s rushed #CGT changes have created a secret death tax on the family home. Crazy? Insane? #CGT can now be triggered on death or divorce,before any sale, forcing grieving families to sell just to pay the tax bill.
Insane. Reckless. An assault on aspiration and intergenerational security. We must keep fighting to stop this illogical #CGT.
@NoelWhittaker is right to call it out. Every Australian should read this👇

The PM is upset today that people have "grievances" against Labor.
Under his government:
- taxes are the highest on record and going up more
- inflation and interest rates are the highest in the developed world
- energy prices have skyrocketed by 38%
- we have lost our nickel, plastics, flat glass and urea industries
- we are begging the rest of the world to keep supplying us oil
- young people can't buy a home because migration is running 100,000 people a year MORE than normal
- people that hate Australia have been allowed to stay and spread their hate with no sanction
Australia has been LOSING under Labor and the PM thinks that anyone that complains about it is being disrespectful.
If the PM wants more respect he could try doing a better job.

We cannot restore housing affordability by crashing the market.
We can do it by cutting migration, getting inflation down so people can save more and building more affordable homes.
We have so much land available to help fix the housing crisis. Yet Labor's tax grab destroys the value of homes which people work so hard to buy in the first place.

It’s fair to say the 2YO in training market has flourished in every major racing jurisdiction around the world — except Australia.
Until now.
The phenomenal success of the high-quality domestic graduates from last year’s @inglis_sales 2YO Sale suggests this market has finally come of age in 🇦🇺.
In our view, any Australian buyer who isn’t seriously working this sale in 2026 is doing their client base a disservice.

WATCH: The theatre that unfolded at Riverside last night at #InglisChairmans when star 2YO Chayan entered the ring had been rarely witnessed anywhere around the world before. Take a look at the entire sale of the filly, which ended with Coolmore winning a titanic bidding duel at a record $5.6m.
