The breeze-up season continues on Tuesday with Doncaster the place to be as a catalogue packed full of potential juvenile stars for the coming season goes under the hammer.

Yorkshire is far from the only focus though, with the second day of what has already been a blockbuster Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale taking place in Sydney.

Note that Doncaster's sale gets underway at 11am, not 10am as had previously been advertised.

Final thought

As horses breezed at Doncaster on Monday, it was hard not to think of the amount of work that has gone into getting each of every one of them fit and ready to go for this week. The looked, as always, in tremendous condition, showcasing once again the dedication and professionalism of our stud and stable staff.
