    • $675,000 of industry funding into that sweepstake by name but not by funding race. You do wonder whether the money could have been spent better elsewhere. It would be interesting to know who's idea it was to boost the stake by half a million this year?  I wonder how many of the current field wouldn't have turned up if it had been "only" $1m. Not as if many of them had much more appealing opportunities elsewhere. I suppose next year they will increase it to $2m to get a better field, and the holy grail, to try and get a third tier Aussie.

    • Stakes-winning Tuscan Sky (Vino Rosso) (hip 7), winner of last year's listed Pegasus Stakes at Monmouth Park, topped the Fasig-Tipton January Digital Sale Tuesday when selling for $450,000 to West Bloodstock. The January Digital Sale, which saw an average of $28,073 and a clearance rate of 79% for its catalogue of horses of racing age, racing/broodmare prospects, broodmares and short yearlings, closed Tuesday evening with 107 horses sold for $3,003,900. The 4-year-old Tuscan Sky, last raced in the GIII Harlan's Holiday Stakes Dec. 21, was offered as a horse of racing age by ELiTE, agent. A multiple stakes performer who competed in the GII Wood Memorial Stakes and the GI NYRA Bets Haskell Stakes as a 3-year-old, Tuscan Sky is a half-brother to Grade II-winning millionaire and sire Private Creed (Jimmy Creed), out of the stakes-winning Sky Mesa mare South Andros. “This sale was a great way to start the year,” said Fasig-Tipton's Director of Digital Sales Leif Aaron. “There were more scratches than I would have liked, but that is the nature of horse sales. The top five prices all represented different segments of the market, which shows an incredibly deep buying bench. We are continuing to see growth from buyers that have never purchased from Fasig-Tipton. I'm very encouraged for the rest of 2025.”   Top hips sold also included: Sav (Big Screen) (hip 26), a broodmare in foal to the late Uncle Mo, sold for $150,000 to Town and Country and Pollock Farms. The graded-stakes placed stakes winner was consigned by Warrendale Sales, agent. Belle's Blue Bell (Girvin) (hip 11), a stakes-winning broodmare prospect, sold for $130,000 to CEM Bloodstock. The four-year-old was consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent. Gold Lightning (Bolt d'Oro) (hip 18), a multiple stakes- performing racing/broodmare prospect sold for $125,000 to Machmer Hall. The four-year-old was consigned by Evergreen Equine, agent. Full sales results are available online. The next Fasig-Tipton Digital sale will be the February Digital Sale, to be held February 20-25. Entries close February 5.
