Fasig-Tipton has catalogued 575 entries for its upcoming Midlantic 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale, to be held Monday and Tuesday, May 22-23, at the Maryland State Fairgrounds in Timonium, Maryland.
“Buyers will be presented with the strongest Midlantic catalogue in recent memory when they arrive in Timonium this year,” said Midlantic Sales Director Paget Bennett. “We purposefully tightened up our numbers just a bit, while adding increased quality. We have strong sire power, quality individuals, and from what I hear from our consignors, horses that have showed very promising ability in their early training.”
This year's front catalogue cover features undefeated Grade I winner and multiple graded-stakes winning 3-year-old filly Faiza (Girvin), as well as Grade I winners Switzerland (Speightstown) and Beyond Brilliant (Twirling Candy). The catalogue's back cover features GI Kentucky Oaks hopeful Mimi Kakushi (City of Light) as well as recent graded-stakes winners Classy Edition (Classic Empire), Informative (Bodemeister), Ridin with Biden (Constitution), and That's Right (Goldencents).
“Fasig-Tipton Midlantic is the only 2-year-old sale venue on the East Coast at which horses breeze over a dirt surface,” continued Bennett. “Buyers have confidence in what they purchase off our track, and that confidence is validated by the sale's ever-growing list of prominent graduates.”
The under tack show will be held over three sessions, on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, May 16-18. Each under tack show session will begin at 8:00 am. The 148th Preakness Stakes will be held at nearby Pimlico Saturday, May 20, and the sale will follow May 22 and 23. Each sale session will begin at 11 am.
The catalogue may now be viewed online and will also be available via the equineline sales catalogue app. Print catalogues will be available beginning April 21. Online bidding and phone bidding services will be available.
