Fasig-Tipton has cataloged 512 yearlings for its Midlantic Fall Yearlings Sale, to be held Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 3-4, at the Maryland State Fairgrounds in Timonium, Md.
Hips 1-200 will be offered in the Monday session, which will begin at 1:00 p.m. ET.
Hips 201-512 will be offered in the Tuesday session, which will begin at 10:00 a.m. ET.
"This year's catalog features over 500 yearlings and our strongest sire power in recent memory," said Midlantic director of sales Paget Bennett. "Quality yearlings representing a wide variety of state-bred programs will be on offer, and with more than 70 stakes wins or placings for Midlantic Fall grads this year, all serious yearling buyers should make plans to attend."
During last year's two-day sale a colt by Mendelssohn consigned as Hip 415 by Northview Stallion Station topped the sale after selling for $235,000 to Scanlon Training and Sales.
The auction ranks prominently among major North American yearling sales in numerous performance categories according to The BloodHorse MarketWatch, particularly with 2-year-old winners.
"Midlantic Fall ranks second nationally among yearling sales by percentage of 2-year-old winners, trailing only Fasig-Tipton's July Selected Yearling Sale in that category," added Bennett.
The catalog may now be viewed online, and will also be available via the equineline sales catalog app. Print catalogs will be available by September 7.
Phone bidding and online bidding services will also be available.
