The 2026 February Digital Sale closed with gross sales of $5,881,500 for 189 horses sold and the topper was Neom Beach (Omaha Beach) who brought $300,000, the online auction said in a press release on Tuesday evening.

The sale opened Thursday, Feb. 19 with offerings which included horses of racing age, racing/broodmare prospects, broodmares–including mares with foals at foot–stallion prospects, 'short' yearlings, and a 2-year-old in-training.

Neom Beach (hip 1), a multiple stakes winner, went to Amy Moore of South Gate Farm. The $300,000 sales topper was consigned as a racing/broodmare prospect by Jeffrey Bloom, agent.

A winner at 2, 3 and 4, the 5-year-old won last year's Ouija Board Distaff Stakes on dirt and the Wasted Tears Stakes on turf. The mare, who earned more than $745,000 on the racetrack, entered the sale off a three-length win versus allowance company in her last start.

“Fasig-Tipton has mastered the art of blending their legacy bloodstock sales expertise with their proven innovative digital platform,” said Jeffrey Bloom. “Bringing buyers and sellers across the world together with such amazing efficiency opens up endless opportunities. I am a huge fan.”

Rounding out the top five prices of the sale were:

  • Miss Tapirado (hip 37), sold for $260,000 to Four Quarters Corp., NW Bloodstock, agent, from the consignment of Mill Ridge Sales, agent (Dispersal of Repossessed Horses). A winning daughter of Tapit, Miss Tapirado has produced a 2-year-old colt by Uncle Mo, which has not started, and has a yearling colt by Echo Town. She was offered not mated;
  • Gun Party (hip 31), sold for $200,000 to KDE Equine from the consignment of Steve Asmussen, agent. Offered as a horse of racing age, the five-year-old son of Curlin out of GISW Carina Mia (Malibu Moon) recorded two 90+ Beyer speed figures last year at Churchill Downs and Saratoga. Gun Party has earned more than $315,000 to date;
  • Misinformation (hip 36), sold for $180,000 to Lobo Farm from the consignment of Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent for DJ Stable Graduate. A 3-year-old colt by Essential Quality, Misinformation was twice a winner last year at 2 and was just a nose shy of victory in allowance company at Oaklawn Feb. 7. He has been on the board in five of seven career starts with two wins and earnings of more than $120,000;
  • Paynterbynumbers (hip 3), sold for $160,000 to Ken Copenhaver from the consignment of Mill Ridge Sales, agent (Dispersal of Repossessed Horses). A winning daughter of Paynter herself, her first foal is multiple stakes winning juvenile of last year Counting Stars (Honor A. P.), who is entered in this Sunday's GIII Honeybee Stakes at Oaklawn. Paynterbynumbers has a yearling filly by Epicenter and was offered not mated.

“We're absolutely thrilled with the results of this sale, which surpassed $5,800,000 in gross,” said Leif Aaron, Fasig-Tipton Director of Digital Sales. “Bidding was strong from start to finish, reflecting the depth and diversity of both our offerings and our buyer base. With more than 1,200 registered bidders and an 80% clearance rate, the market is clearly healthy and active–horses are getting sold.

“We're especially encouraged to see new participants joining us each sale, and we're incredibly appreciative of the continued support from our buyers and sellers,” he said. “Also telling was that 85% of the horses that brought $100,000 or more were sold by traditional consignors, so it's exciting to see how comfortable they are selling high end stock on our digital platform.”

Full results are available online.

The next digital sale will be held Mar. 19-24. Entries close Mar. 9.
