A colt by in-demand Newgate sire Tassort topped the Inglis HTBA Yearling Sale in Sydney as the average, median and aggregate fell on what it was in 2023.
The sale saw 224 yearlings catalogued, with 202 going through the ring at the Riverside Stables. A total of 151 sold, a clearance rate of 75 per cent, with the average price reaching $19,430 and median $10,000.
Those metrics are down on last year, when 219 yearlings sold at 82 per cent with an average of $20,550 and a median of $12,000. The aggregate was down from $4.5 million to just under $3 million as the lower end of the market continued to feel the pain of greater buyer discretion.
