October Digital Sale
Fasig-Tipton Release
LEXINGTON, Ky.—The October Digital Sale closed Wednesday evening with 240 horses sold for $4,947,500. The sale, which closed over two days on October 7 and 8, offered horses of racing age, racing/broodmare prospects, broodmares, yearlings, and weanlings.
Stifled Heiress (hip 242), in foal to Leinster, topped the sale when sold for $470,000 to Pursuit of Success LLC from the consignment of SGV Thoroughbreds, agent. A daughter of Munnings, Stifled Heiress is already the dam of two winners from two starters, including this year’s Gallant Bob S. (G2) winner Mad House (Vekoma). She hails from the immediate family of Grade 1 winner Ultimate Eagle.
Blame It On Alphie (hip 232), in foal to perennial leading sire Into Mischief, sold for $400,000 to Hunter Valley Farm & Mountmellick Farm from the consignment of Mulholland Springs, agent. By Blame, Blame It On Alphie is a stakes placed half-sister to three stakes winners, including graded stakes winner Alphie’s Bet and multiple Grade 1 placed Twentytwentyvision. She is out of a half-sister to Group 1 winner Absolut Glam.
Save Time (hip 3), a stakes placed daughter of Into Mischief, sold for $310,000 to Ashview Farm. The four-year-old was offered as a racing/broodmare prospect by Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent. Save Time is out the winning Tapit mare Chamber, who is a daughter of multiple Grade 1 winner and multimillionaire Sightseek. The family received a significant update this weekend when Imaginationthelady, also out of a daughter of Sightseek, remained undefeated while winning the Jessamine S. (G2) for two-year-olds.
“It’s always nerve-wracking to be the first sale of the year offering a large quantity of breeding stock,” said Leif Aaron, Director of Digital Sales. “Broodmares in foal were clearly in high demand — which makes perfect sense given the time of year.
“Our numbers are up significantly from 2024 to 2025: horses offered, sold, average, and gross are all showing major increases. The number of registered bidders rose by 25%, which is an incredible jump.
“Gains like that don’t happen by chance. This was the result of a massive collective effort. We turned around a 400-horse catalogue in just ten days — an enormous undertaking. That meant vetting, photos, seller descriptions, and mountains of paperwork. Buyers, too, put in the work to study the catalogue and come prepared.
“It was a true team effort from everyone involved, and we’re deeply grateful to our customers for giving us the opportunity to put on this show.”
