Vaccination Target to Benefit R2R's Date Change

Meanwhile, adding potential upside to the date change of the Inglis Ready2Run Sale (see above item) is the prospect that, by mid-October, NSW could hit the desired 70 percent double vaccination threshold to trigger an easement of COVID restrictions. “Thoroughbred racing has continued throughout this pandemic and it’s important that sales like this one continue to supply horses to support race fields, syndicators and training stables into the future,” noted Inglis’s managing director Mark Webster. “With the NSW Government set to ease restrictions once the double vaccinated population reaches 70% by mid-October, we believe that the new date will allow us to maximise the number of buyers in attendance at the sale.Regardless, the sale will be held as a Covid-safe event with the backing and support of the NSW Government and we can’t wait to have people back on the grounds at Riverside for what will be one of the first events in Greater Sydney to be held post lockdown.’’ The Inglis Ready2Race Sale boasts over 400 individual winning graduates since 2015 for almost $60 million in graduate earnings.
