Everyone Loves an Inglis Digital Success Story

Tara Madgwick - Sunday Sep 13

Now a triple G1 winner, Sheza Alibi might be the big pin-up girl for Inglis Digital at present, but there is another success story emerging that was highlighted at Doomben on Saturday when Tony Gollan produced talented sprinter Gram to win his sixth race in a row.

Godolphin offer significant numbers of tried racehorses in online sales and Gram was one of those.

A four year-old gelding by Exceed and Excel he was offered in the 2025 Inglis Digital November (late) Sale as a 4YO gelding with five starts for three placings and by the read of the sale reports, the ability was there, but soundness had been an issue. Click to see his sale page.

He was snapped up for $75,000 by High Calibre Racing / Gollan Racing and kicked off for his new connections in April this year with a couple of fourth placings.

On June 7, Gram broke his maiden at the Sunshine Coast and has not been beaten since reeling off six consecutive wins including his facile two and a half length romp on Saturday.

Gram has now won over $210,000 for his new ownership group put together by High Calibre Racing and judging by the ease of this win there will be more to come from the flashy  gelding, who has a flashy pedigree being a half-brother to Group III winner Zulfiqar from a half-sister to the dam of Group I stars Alizee and Astern.
