It’s official – the 2021 Inglis Classic Yearling Sale is the biggest and best on record. Following an extraordinary three days of trade at Riverside, the action ended last night with a record overall gross ($58,136,000), record Book 1 average ($102,421), record Book 1 medium ($80,000) and a spectacular 91% clearance rate. The gross, average and median records all eclipse the previous standards set at the 2018 Classic, which doubled as the much-hyped opening sale at Riverside. Yesterday’s Highway Session was also a resounding a success, clearing 88% at an average of $48,736 with 14 lots selling for $100,000 or more.
