The sale will entail four days of Book 1 (Feb 9-12) – where 808 yearlings have been catalogued – plus the Highway Session (Book 2, Feb 14), which has seen a further 205 youngsters entered.

Wednesday February 13 will be a Highway Race Day at Warwick Farm featuring two Highway Handicaps – one for Country-trained horses and one for Provincial-trained horses.

If the winner of either Highway race is an eligible Inglis graduate (paid up for the current or a former Inglis Race Series), the winning trainer will receive a $50,000 credit voucher to spend at the Highway Session at Riverside Stables the following day.
