Another Inglis Digital Sold Stakes-Winner

Tara Madgwick - Saturday August 29

The Inglis Digital platform provided another stakes winner on Saturday when Sky Punch (Alamosa) won the Listed SAJC Leon Macdonald Stakes at Morphettville.

It was a first stakes success for the Michael Hickmott-trained 6YO Alamosa gelding , who Andrew Maloney purchased for just $30,000 in the August 2019 Online Auction.

Since then the horse has raced seven times for three wins and two minor placings, earning almost $120,000 along the way.

In an Inglis graduates stakes trifecta, Sky Punch defeated Morvada (Easter Yearling Sale) and Dalasan (Premier Yearling Sale).

“To win a race named after Mr Macdonald, who’s been an idol of mine my whole life, is just a huge honour,’’ Hickmott said.

“This horse, there’s new owners, three of my best mates, all my family, I’m just so thrilled.’’

Sky Punch was originally bought from the NZB Ready to Run Sale for $170,000 and has the overall record of five wins and eight placings from 23 starts with prizemoney just shy of $180,000.
