High-priced yearling finds new home via Inglis Digital

Critique, a colt who competed in Black Type races across the recent Melbourne Spring Carnival, was the star of the latest Inglis Digital Sale, which concluded on Wednesday.

The son of Written Tycoon was bought by Golden Bloodstock for $140,000.

A $775,000 buy for Newgate, China Horse Club and Trilogy Racing at last year's Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, Critique won two of seven starts for Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott and was most recently seen finishing eighth in the Group 3 Carbine Club Stakes.

"We continue to have success selling on the Inglis Digital platform and the horses we sell continue to have success on the racetrack so all in all, it works exceptionally well,'' Newgate's Henry Field said.

"Critique is a really nice horse with significant racing upside for his new owners, so I wish them all the best.''

Critique was one of three horses to sell for six figures at the Inglis Digital November (Late) Online Sale, which grossed $1,987,450.

The second top lot was lightly-raced Exosphere three-year-old Headley Grange, who sold to HBD Bloodstock for $120,000, while I Am Invincible five-year-old Treporti, a winner of three of 19 starts for Danny O'Brien, sold to Cameron Richardson for $100,000.

The next Inglis Digital Catalogue to be offered is the lone digital sale in December, which runs from December 15 to 20, but before that the standalone sale involving Enquare will be held.
