What Is Inglis and What Does inglis.com.au Offer?

Inglis is an Australian bloodstock auctioneer — a company that runs public auctions of thoroughbred horses. Its website, inglis.com.au, is the operational hub for those auctions: you can browse the sales calendar, enter a horse in a sale, bid online, check results, and pay. It is aimed mainly at breeders, owners, trainers, bloodstock agents and racing investors rather than the general public, and the site is in English.

What Inglis actually does

Inglis describes itself as "Australia's Leading Bloodstock Auctioneers." In practice that means it hosts physical and online sales of thoroughbred racehorses and breeding stock, and it also runs a race series tied to horses sold through its sales.

The site's navigation reflects that core business. Under Auctions you'll find the Sales Calendar, Sales Results, Sale Entry Forms, Buyer Information, Veterinary Reports and the X-Ray Repository — the last two being the documentation buyers review before bidding on a lot.

The main services on the site

Buying and selling

If you're selling, the entry point is Online Sale Entry plus the Sale Entry Forms; you'll also deal with Veterinary Reports and the X-Ray Repository, since buyers expect that documentation to be lodged. If you're buying, start with Buyer Information and the Conditions of Sale, then Register for Online Bidding or an Inglis Online account. Catalogue Favourites lets you shortlist lots before a sale.

Payment runs through the Pay Online page. The site also publishes Eftsure Information, which relates to verifying payment details — worth reading before transferring funds, since payment-detail fraud is a known risk in bloodstock transactions.

Beyond the auction ring

Inglis extends past sales. The Inglis Race Series covers several programs — the 2026, 2025, 2024 and 2023 Graduates series, the Pink Bonus Series, Xtra Bonus Series and Inglis Triple Crown Race Series — all restricted to horses sold by Inglis. The site also lists Insurance, Property, Travel Services and Syndications, and links out to Bloodstock.com.au and Stallions.

There's a physical side too: Riverside Sales Complex in Sydney and the Oaklands complex in Melbourne, both available for Venue Hire, plus the William Inglis Hotel. Corporate information — Directors & Staff, Jobs, Hall of Fame, Whistleblower Policy — sits under About and Visit Us.

A worked example

Say you want to bid on a yearling but can't attend in person. You'd open the Sales Calendar, find the sale, browse the Catalogue and mark lots as Favourites, read the Veterinary Reports and X-Rays for those lots, check the Conditions of Sale, then Register for Online Bidding. After the fall of the hammer you'd settle via Pay Online. Every one of those steps has a dedicated page on the site — which is the clearest sign of what inglis.com.au is built to do.

What the site doesn't tell you upfront

Pricing for services, membership tiers and any login restrictions aren't stated in the material available here, so don't assume free access or open registration — check the relevant page or contact Inglis directly via the Contact Us details before relying on either.
