Media Release - Friday Jun 12

A unique individual went under the hammer at Inglis’ Great Southern Weanling Sale and was warmly embraced by the buying bench.

$180,000 Chaldean colt from Summerinthecity.

The first Southern Hemisphere youngster to be offered at auction by Cambridge Stud's exciting young stallion Chaldean (GB) was purchased out of Burnewang North Pastoral’s draft by former Group 1-winning jockey Scott Seamer.
