Northview Stallion Station will be busy at the upcoming Fasig-Tipton Midlantic December Mixed and Horses of Racing Age Sale on Tuesday, Dec. 8. The consignment will offer nearly 50 head, including a 27-horse reduction of breeding stock for Joseph Besecker.
Perhaps more importantly, the annual Midlantic sale will allow the Chesapeake City, Maryland-based farm the opportunity to show off stock from their growing stallion roster, including the first weanlings from Irish War Cry (Curlin) and Hoppertunity (Any Given Saturday).
“Our game is to bring the best we can for the market in the Mid-Atlantic region and in Maryland and not to price ourselves out of the market,” said Northview's Bloodstock Manager Paul O'Loughlin. “We try to go for sire power and horses with pedigree, and what's affordable to the Maryland breeders.”
