Bidding is now open on Fasig-Tipton Digital for the "Mensa Flash Sale," a one-horse online auction of Mensa, an impressive debut-winning 2-year-old ridgling.

Bidding on Mensa will close April 29 at 2 PM ET.

Trained by Mark Casse for owner D. J. Stable, Mensa cruised to an easy three-length victory going gate to wire in his debut at Gulfstream Park April 12. Mensa is scheduled to make his next start in the Kentucky Juvenile Stakes at Churchill Downs May 2.

"Mensa earned a 9 Thoro-Graph figure in his first-out win, a faster number than Casse-trained champions Classic Empire and Wonder Wheel received in their debut wins in the spring as 2-year-olds," said Fasig-Tipton director of digital sales Leif Aaron. "He is an exciting prospect that Mark Casse thinks has a very bright future. This is an opportunity for racing stables to buy a live 2-year-old with unlimited potential."

Mensa is stabled at Churchill Downs and will train each day at 9:10 am in a special saddle cloth. Prospective buyers can follow him back to Barn 36 after training to inspect him.

Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent for D. J. Stables Graduate, consigns Mensa. Successful horses sold by D. J. Stable on Fasig-Tipton Digital include Witwatersrand, who was recently named champion 2-year-old filly in Canada.

Prospective buyers may view the entry and register to bid at digital.fasigtipton.com.
