The Inglis Classic Yearling Sale is a breeding ground for champions, but some pedigrees are more eye-catching than others. And these enhancements are turning heads! The race to the top just got more intriguing.
The 2026 Inglis sale catalog, released in November 2025, has seen several yearlings' pedigrees boosted, creating a buzz among vendors and buyers. Let's dive into some of these remarkable updates:
Lot 50: A filly with a golden lineage. Her dam, Guapa (USA), has an impressive record with all five of her track foals becoming winners. The standout is Chica Fuerte, a dual Group 3 winner, whose second foal, Invicto, is making waves. Trained by Ciaron Maher, Invicto showed promise in a jump-out before a strong debut in the Listed Blue Diamond Preview. While the winner, Alibaba, heads to Sydney, Invicto stays on the G1 Blue Diamond Stakes path, aiming for glory.
Controversy Alert: Is the Blue Diamond Stakes an achievable dream for Invicto? Last year's winner, Devil Night, broke their maiden in the same race. But will Invicto follow suit? Share your predictions in the comments!
Lot 69: This colt's pedigree got a massive boost. His half-brother, Zip Lock, won on debut and then stormed to victory in the G3 BJ McLachlan Stakes. Trained by Chris and Corey Munce, Zip Lock was a favorite for the Magic Millions 2YO Classic, and his return for the Queensland winter carnival is eagerly awaited.
The dam, Honolulu Lass, maintains an incredible record, with all four of her runners becoming winners. Adding to the family's success, her sister Reve de Victoire produced Just Cruisin', a 5-year-old stakes performer with three Listed level placings.
Lot 190: A colt with a double update! His full sister, Where's The Circus, is a star, winning the R. Listed Inglis Nursery on debut. Trained by Paul Murray, she's one of two juvenile stakes winners for Trapeze Artist this season. With over $230,000 in prize money from just one start, she's set for the R. Listed Inglis Millennium, aiming for another update.
And there's more! This colt's half-sister, Can't Find Snippy, produced Elusive Capital, a stakes-performed juvenile who placed third in the Listed Phelan Ready Stakes.
