Fasig-Tipton Release
LEXINGTON, Ky.—Fasig-Tipton has catalogued 240 entries for its February Digital Sale, which may be viewed at digital.fasigtipton.com. Bidding is now open and will close Tuesday, February 25, beginning at 2 PM ET.
The catalogue offers horses of racing age, breeding stock – including mares with foals at foot, two-year-olds in training, yearlings, a stallion prospect, and a no guarantee stallion season.
“We are heating things up in February with a sizzling catalogue,” said Leif Aaron, Fasig-Tipton Director of Digital Sales. “We have some serious breeding stock catalogued – including graded stakes performers – as well as offerings from three dispersals, horses of racing age, a million-dollar earning stallion prospect, and a no guarantee season to Street Sense.”
Fasig-Tipton will also debut a new type of offering on its digital platform in this sale, a segment of two-year-olds in training.
“We are excited to offer a group of two-year-olds in training for the first time on Fasig-Tipton Digital, in a new and unique format,” continued Aaron. “Two-year-olds will be sold from their training bases in Ocala, Florida; Aiken, South Carolina; and Lexington, Kentucky; and presented with professionally filmed gallop and breeze videos that are untimed.”
Aaron continued: “All the resources of a traditional two-year-old sale will be at the buyer’s disposal, including conformation photos and walking videos, vet reports, and a full repository. There is quality sire power among the entries, and buyers may schedule appointments to inspect the horses in-person through our platform.”
Sires represented by two-year-olds in training include Constitution, Munnings, Not This Time, and Yaupon. Two-year-olds in training are all grouped together in the catalogue as hips 41-57.
Other offerings of interest in the catalogue:
- No Guarantee season to Street Sense (Hip 38), with a portion of the season’s sale proceeds donated to Stable Recovery;
- Dispersal of Swifty Farms, offering horses of racing age, breeding stock, and yearlings, all of which are eligible for the lucrative Indiana-bred program;
- Breeding stock from the Dispersal of Red Oak Stable;
- Stallion prospect Newgrange (Hip 9), a multiple graded stakes winner and millionaire son of Violence.
The February Digital Sale catalogue is now available online and will be available in the equineline app.
