Fasig-Tipton Releases Night of the Stars Catalog
Fasig-Tipton has cataloged 246 main catalog entries for The November Sale, the company's selected mixed sale to be held in Lexington Nov. 7, following the Breeders' Cup. The single-session sale will begin at 2 p.m. ET. "The Fasig-Tipton November Sale annually offers a collection of the world's finest bloodstock," said Fasig-Tipton president Boyd Browning Jr. "This year's catalog is once again outstanding, offering 55 graded stakes winners or producers, 26 of which are grade 1." Browning continued: "We have Eclipse champions, international champions, multiple Breeders' Cup winners, and a Kentucky Oaks winner. On the producer side, buyers will find the dams of Eclipse Award winners, Breeders' Cup winners, and a Royal Ascot winner. This sale is one-stop shopping for those seeking the very best." The sale begins with 135 weanlings—selected on pedigree and conformation—before transitioning into racing/broodmare prospects and broodmares as afternoon turns to evening. "Weanlings have become a very important part of this sale, and this year, we tightened up our acceptance standards to ensure a high-quality group from top to bottom. It's a very good group of foals," Browning added. "The racing and breeding offerings are even deeper this year, as well. Buyers will find significant quality at all levels of the market." The catalog may now be viewed online, including Fasig-Tipton's popular Enhanced Catalog. The Enhanced Catalog provides up-to-date catalog pages, Daily Racing Form past performances, and race replays; an Alan Porter pedigree analysis and five-cross pedigrees for all racing/broodmare prospects and broodmares; Stallion Register pages for all sires of weanlings and covering sires; as well as other tools to aid prospective buyers. All grade 1 winning females off the track or carrying their first foals will also be profiled with individual feature videos. Print catalogs will be available by Oct. 6. The catalog will also be available via the Equineline sales catalog app. Online bidding and phone bidding will be available. The November Sale will also offer a supplemental catalog. Fasig-Tipton will accept approved entries for the supplement through the Breeders' Cup World Championships.
