Horse Information

FLOAT LOADING / UNLOADING

The float entrance for Riverside is located at the southern end of the complex and is accessed from a slip lane on Governor Macquarie Drive.

This lane can only be accessed when travelling south on Governor Macquarie Drive. Once a float passes through the security gate at this entrance there are several unloading bays available for side loaders, rear loaders and basic two horse floats.

We have 10 rubber lined holding yards adjacent to the loading area that can be used to hold horses if your float driver has no assistance in delivering horses to their barn.

Once horses are ready to walk to their allotted stable, they should be led to the left-hand side of the security hut which is located on the central avenue. Here they will have their microchip scanned and their stable location will be confirmed to the handler.

The horse will then be directed down the central avenue to it’s stable. Please ensure your floating company and staff are aware of these directions.

Horse trailers/floats may be parked at Warwick Farm over the duration of the sale. To request a float parking spot over the sale period please contact Jonathan D’Arcy on 0412 965 729.

PRE-SALE SCOPING

On a voluntary basis, you may choose to have your horse/s undergo a presale endoscopic examination, conducted by a veterinarian of your choice and lodged in the Inglis repository.

These will be maintained in the same repository system as the x-rays.

Please note that all pre-sale scope reports submitted in to the repository

must be completed at Riverside and lodged no later than midday Saturday 5 February.

If you are planning on having your horses pre-sale scoped, please contact your veterinarian directly as soon as possible so they can book the vet room. Then please have your appointed veterinarian contact Teresa McGinley to book one of our custom designed scoping facilities to conduct this procedure. For the safety of staff and horses, yearlings are not permitted to be scoped in their boxes.

Please contact Teresa MacGinley on teresa@inglis.com.au if you require a list of vets who perform pre-sale scopes at our sales.

We recommend this is performed early in the morning and on the first or second day after you arrive.

Once the endoscopic evaluation has been completed you may choose to lodge it in the Inglis repository and/or keep a copy on your laptop at the barn and show interested veterinarians as requested.

Post-sale scoping remains in place at the purchaser’s request.

HENDRA VACCINATED HORSES

Any horse that has been immunised with the Hendra Vaccine must be notified to the Auctioneer prior to the Sale and this information will be advised to the buyers at the time of the Sale. Failure to notify the Auctioneer of this information could lead to cancellation of the sale of your lot.

This test will be conducted at either the purchaser’s or Racing New South Wales Stewards request and expense.

The yearling will have a blood sample collected by an Australian Racing Board approved veterinarian shortly after the lot is returned to its stable.

Special Note: ALTRENOGEST (Regu-Mate) Vendors are advised not to administer Altrenogest (Regu-Mate) to yearlings entered in this sale as this product may produce swabs with traces of the steroids trenbolone and trendione.
