16 racing or broodmare prospects by such sires as Uncle Mo, Frankel (GB), Invincible Spirit (Ire), Medaglia d'Oro and Kodiac (GB).
The 39 horses in the Complete Dispersal of the late Paul P. Pompa Jr., Lane's End, agent, are broodmares, foals of 2020, horses of racing age and broodmare or stallion prospects.
“This year's January sale is especially deep because of the Sam-Son, Paul Pompa and Spry Family Farm dispersals, which offer one-of-a-kind opportunities to obtain breeding and racing stock from established, successful operations,” Keeneland President-Elect and Interim Head of Sales Shannon Arvin said. “These dispersals further enhance the January sale's reputation for being a source of quality broodmares prior to breeding season and a popular market for newly turned yearlings and horses of racing age.”
Each session of the January sale will begin at 10 a.m. ET. Keeneland will continue to offer online and phone bidding to enable buyers to participate in the January sale remotely while employing onsite COVID-19 protocols similar to those used during its two recent auctions.
