In Her Time (Time Thief), who will be offered in foal to I Am Invincible (Invincible Spirit), becomes the latest Group 1 winner to be added to the Inglis Chairman's Sale, which will be held at Riverside on the evening of Friday May 7. 

Winner of the 2019 Lightning Stakes (Gr 1, 1000m) and Galaxy Handicap (Gr 1, 1100m) the year prior, In Her Time was also placed at Group 1 level on six occasions and will be offered by the Newgate Consignment with Newgate Bloodstock having bought the eight-year-old daughter of Time Thief (Redoute's Choice) for $2,000,000 at last year's Chairman's Sale.

"In Her Time was one of the best sprinting mares we've seen in the past decade and she's from a very deep family,'' Newgate's Henry Field said.

"We purchased her on behalf of Orbis at last year's Inglis Chairman's Sale as they were dissolving a partnership.

"Orbis have opted to offer her for sale this year as the decision has been made that breeding will not be their key focus.

"It's a privilege to be consigning a mare of this quality.

"She's been a dream to have had residing on the farm, having gone in foal to I Am Invincible on an early September cover and I have no doubt she will be one of the most highly sought-after pregnant mares that gets offered at public auction anywhere in the world in 2021.''

In Her Time is one of six winners out of the dual winner Hell It's Hot (Zeditave), a half-sister to Group 3 winner Hot As Hell (County) and LIsted scorer Flaming Hot (County) while her second dam is also the grandam of Everest (1200m) winner and now Coolmore Australia-based sire Yes Yes Yes (Rubick). 

Inglis' NSW Bloodstock Manager Chris Russell added: "She has got everything you would want in a mare and she's carrying to I Am Invincible – packages like that come on the open market very, very rarely.

"We are obviously incredibly grateful for the opportunity that the owners have given to us and I think, in partnership with Newgate who are such great consignors, we can deliver a fantastic sale."

In Her Time joins the likes of recent Oakleigh Plate winner Celebrity Queen (Redoute's Choice), two-time Group 1 winner Pippie (Written Tycoon), fellow dual Group 1 winner Danzdanzdance (Mastercraftsman), Blue Diamond Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) runner-up Lankan Star (Nicconi), multiple stakes-winning two-year-old Mildred (Hinchinbrook) and Courchevel (Snitzel), a half sister to champion mare Winx (Streety Cry) who is in foal to Capitalist (Written Tycoon) amongst a host of exciting entries confirmed for the sale. 

The catalogue is also set to include mares in foal to the likes of leading sires such as Fastnet Rock (Danehill), Written Tycoon (Iglesia) and Zoustar (Northern Meteor), as well as a rare southern hemisphere-time cover to exciting young sire Night Of Thunder (Dubawi).
