The colt had seven starts with Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott, winning twice (at Ballarat and Randwick-Kensington).
“We continue to have success selling on the Inglis Digital platform and the horses we sell continue to have success on the racetrack so all in all, it works exceptionally well,’’ Henry Field said, noting Newgate’s recent Inglis Digital success stories including Rule Of Law (Snitzel) – a six-time winner of almost $300,000 in earnings – and Dance (Not A Single Doubt), a dual winner of almost $500,000.
“Critique is a really nice horse with significant racing upside for his new owners, so I wish them all the best.’’
