There was plenty of excitement at the Inglis Classic sale a few years ago, when a new vendor sold a sale topping grey colt by Not A Single Doubt. That colt has since won 6 races including last year’s TAB Everest. That seller Linda Monds is much better known today. Linda talks of the apprehension she and husband Laurence felt when they took on the well established breeders. She talks of her original purchase of broodmares which included Pinocchio, the grey mare destined to become Classique Legend’s dam.

Linda talks of her husband Laurence who plays a major role in the day to day running of Tyreel Stud in the Hawkesbury
