Fasig-Tipton has cataloged 407 entries for its October Digital Sale. Bidding opened Oct. 2 and will close over two days Oct. 7-8, starting at 2 p.m. ET each day.
Closing Oct. 7 are hips 1-225, offering horses of racing age, racing and/or broodmare prospects, yearlings, and weanlings.
Closing Oct. 8 are hips 226-407, offering broodmares.
"We're really excited about the October Digital catalog. The depth of this sale has led us to split it across two days," said Leif Aaron, Fasig-Tipton director of digital sales. "Day 1 will feature racehorses at all levels, including some standout broodmare prospects. We're especially thrilled to welcome back A & A Ranch for a second offering of their highly sought-after yearling crop—and there are even 15 weanlings for those early-bird buyers.
"Day 2 will be all about broodmares, including a reduction from Machmer Hall along with several other exceptional mares. It's already time to start thinking about breeding season, and this sale is the perfect place to get a head start."
