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.

Please have your appointed veterinarian contact Teresa MacGinley (0427 682 219) to book our onsite scoping facility if required.

For the safety of staff and horses, yearlings are not permitted to be scoped in their boxes.

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.

Pre-sale endoscopic videos must be lodged in the repository by noon Tuesday 19 April.

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. Please advise Teresa MacGinley if your yearlings have been Hendra Vaccinated.

Please note horses that have been immunised with the Hendra Vaccine are currently banned for export to several countries including China.

BLOOD TESTING FOR STEROIDS

Under our Conditions of Sale yearlings and racehorses ONLY are eligible for a post-sale blood test for anabolic androgenic steroids and receptor modulators. This test will be conducted at either the purchaser’s or Racing Victoria Stewards request and expense. Purchasers wanting to avail themselves of this procedure must check the box on the Acknowledgement of Purchase iPad in the sale ring. The horse will have a blood sample collected by an Australian Racing Board approved veterinarian shortly after the lot is returned to its stable.

The Inglis Conditions of Sale have been updated to include a new post-sale blood test for Bisphosphonates (commonly traded under Osphos or Tildren). This test needs to be specifically requested by the purchaser and is separate to the current anabolic steroid test.

Should the sample prove positive to Bisphosphonates then the purchaser will have the right to cancel the sale within 24 hours of being notified and the results referred to the relevant PRA. Please see Clause 14.1 to 14.3 of the Conditions of Sale for more information.
