The mood is sunny, the buyers look keen and the vendors look excited at the Inglis Melbourne Premier Sale and Maree McEwan caught up with some of the major players at Oaklands Junction.

Matt Comerford from Widden Stud, with 19 yearlings at this sale and set to become much bigger after the announcement they are expanding their operation to Victoria.
