The Saratoga Sale is once again the top ranked major North American yearling sale by percentage of Grade I winners and graded stakes winners according to statistics recently released by The BloodHorse MarketWatch. The sale has produced six individual Grade I winners in the last year. Recent sales graduates include Eclipse Champion and GI Breeders' Cup Classic winner Sierra Leone (Gun Runner); Journalism (Curlin), winner of this year's GI Preakness S.; Seize the Grey (Arrogate) (2024 Preakness S. and GI Pennsylvania Derby); Tappan Street (Into Mischief) (2025 GI Florida Derby); Kingsbarns (Uncle Mo) (2024 GI Stephen Foster S.); and And One More Time (Omaha Beach) (2024 GI Natalma S.) The sale also has the distinction of producing the last three Preakness Stakes winners in Journalism (2025), Seize the Grey (2024), and National Treasure (Quality Road) (2023). In addition to success at the Grade I level, Saratoga has produced 11 additional individual graded stakes winners in the last 12 months in Ballerina d'Oro (Medaglia d'Oro), Barnes (Into Mischief), Battle of Normandy (City of Light), Clicquot (Quality Road), Hall of Fame (Gun Runner), Hope Road (Quality Road), Integration (Quality Road), Major Dude (Bolt d'Oro), Owen Almighty (Speightstown), Rocket Can (Into Mischief), and Ticker Tape Home (Medaglia d'Oro). “The depth of quality found at Saratoga is second-to-none,” added Browning. “From catalogues of just 200 or more yearlings, Saratoga has produced six individual Grade I winners in the last year as well as three consecutive Preakness winners.” The catalogue may now be viewed online, and will also be available via the equineline sales catalogue app. Print catalogues are now available from all Fasig-Tipton offices.
