Fasig-Tipton has cataloged 107 entries for the Fasig-Tipton April Digital Sale, which may be viewed online at digital.fasigtipton.com. Bidding opened April 3 and will close April 9, beginning at 2 p.m. ET, instead of April 8 as originally scheduled. The closing date has been pushed back as to not conflict with rescheduled racing at Keeneland.

The catalog features horses of racing age, breeding stock, 2-year-olds in training, yearlings, and a no-guarantee season to Nyquist  .

Featured offerings include the major reduction of Merriebelle Stable as well as half sisters to Eclipse champions Mitole   and Ria Antonia , 2024 Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Mystik Dan , and grade 1 winners Hot Rod Charlie , Dunbar Road , and Princess Violet .

"We've got over 50 horses of racing age in current form, ready for action at the spring meets, stakes-credentialed breeding stock, quality offerings from the reduction of Merriebelle Stable, and a no-guarantee season to leading sire Nyquist," said Fasig-Tipton director of digital sales Leif Aaron.
