Bidding Open For Fasig-Tipton May Digital Sale

[Wandering Eyes]

The catalogue for the Fasig-Tipton May Digital sale is now online at digital.fasigtipton.com and bidding is now open for the 110 horses of all ages that are on offer. The sale will close on Tuesday, May 14, beginning at 2 p.m. ET.

The catalogue includes breeding stock in addition to horses of racing age, 2-year-olds and yearlings.

Among the offerings are the first mares in foal to champions Elite Power (Curlin), Forte (Violence) and Up To The Mark (Not This Time), as well as Gunite (Gun Runner) Mage (Good Magic) and Taiba (Gun Runner). Perennial leading sires Constitution, Into Mischief and Not This Time are also among the covering sires.

“We have a serious collection of breeding stock, the type of quality buyers usually have to wait until November to find,” said Leif Aaron, Fasig-Tipton Director of Digital Sales. “Mare buyers will miss important opportunities if they don't shop this sale.”

The horses of racing age include graded-stakes quality colts and geldings, as well as last-out winners. Graded winners and performers have been catalogued among the racing/broodmare prospects and can continue their careers at the track or be bred.

“There is good quality and depth among the racehorse offerings in both the male and female divisions,” noted Aaron. “Many of the fillies have global appeal and can even be bred right away on Southern Hemisphere covers.”

Added Aaron: “The buying public has really begun to embrace our digital platform, and sellers are responding by upping the quality that they offer online. Our clearance rate on Fasig-Tipton Digital is 90% in 2024. This demonstrates that we provide a fair marketplace with realistic sellers. I think more and more buyers are coming to realize and appreciate that.
