Description:
A total of 94 horses have been consigned to the Texas 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale set for 10 a.m. April 2 at Lone Star Park, and the interactive sale catalog is now online. The breeze show is scheduled for 8 a.m. March 31 at the Grand Prairie, Texas, track.
Online bidding will be offered for the auction, which is operated by the Texas Thoroughbred Association, and supplements are still being accepted.
"Consignors have consistently been bringing quality horses to our sales, and that's been proven over and over on the racetrack," said Foster Bridewell, TTA sales director. "We had 2-year-old sale graduate Frost Free win the grade 3 Chick Lang Stakes on Preakness Day at Pimlico last year, and yearling sale grad Coal Battle is already a millionaire and on the road to the Kentucky Derby after winning the grade 2 Rebel Stakes last weekend."
Leading regional stallions with offspring in the sale include Aurelius Maximus , El Deal , Gormley , and Star Guitar . Top Kentucky stallions represented include Frosted , Goldencents , Good Magic , Hard Spun , Into Mischief , Liam's Map , Maclean's Music , Omaha Beach , and Union Rags .
Sale graduates are eligible to compete in one of two divisions of the $150,000-added Texas Thoroughbred Association Futurity to be held July 5 at Lone Star Park. Sale graduates will also be eligible as 3-year-olds to compete in the $100,000-added Texas Thoroughbred Association Derby and Oaks at Sam Houston Race Park in 2026.
