A total of 1,236 horses–including broodmares and broodmare prospects, newly turned yearlings, horses of racing age, stallions and stallion prospects–have been catalogued for the upcoming Keeneland January Horses of All Ages Sale, scheduled to take place in Lexington from Jan. 13-15.
“The January sale has opportunities for the new year, whether you are preparing for the breeding season or making plans for your racing stable,” Keeneland Vice President of Sales Tony Lacy said. “Breeders from around the globe will be focusing on the auction, which has a unique timing advantage for sellers of nice fillies. Pinhookers and end-users will compete for the short yearlings on offer, while the selection of horses of racing age will be appealing.”
Among the auction's premier offerings are graded-placed racing or broodmare prospects Ain't Broke (Dialed In) (hip 49)–a narrowly beaten second in Sunday's Garland of Roses Stakes– Amidst Waves (Midshipman) (hip 61), Lady Beth (Hard Spun) (hip 264), and Movie Moxy (Street Sense) (hip 319), who was third in last Saturday's GIII Go For Wand Stakes. Also on offer is stakes-winner Sunset Glory (Ire) (Cotai Glory {GB}) (hip 419) and stakes-placed Callie's Grit (Maclean's Music) (hip 112).
