Two five per cent shares in Williamsburg (Snitzel) sold as part of a bespoke Inglis Digital sale on Tuesday for $95,000 each. 

The two winning bidders were Chris Lawlor of International Animal Health and Merv Wood.

Trained by Gerald Ryan and Sterling Alexiou, Williamsburg is a Group 3 winner and Group 1 placed son of Snitzel and he is set to line up on Saturday's Group 3 Eskimo Prince Stakes (1200m) at Randwick on Saturday. 

"I just thought he was a great option, he's out of a Group 1-winning mare, he's by Snitzel, his second dam is by Zabeel and his third dam Joie Denise is by Danehill. How do you say no to that combination?'' Lawlor said.

"The price values the horse at around $2m which I think is very much on the money and for a proven horse who we know can handle wet tracks if need be, with the autumn carnival basically upon us it's a nice position to be in." 

Woods meanwhile is excited to own another proven Snitzel colt. 

"I convinced myself, I've been following this horse for a little while now and I think he's great, I think [co-trainer] Gerald Ryan is great and I'm very excited to have another proven Snitzel colt,'' Wood said.

"I buy a few on Inglis Digital but I sell a lot. Comparing it to other sites and seeing how many people use Inglis Digital compared to X,Y and Z site, it's a non-contest really. Ultimately it's just a much better system with Inglis Digital, more buyers, better prices, it just works."
