Ocala Breeders' Sales will host a "Second Chance" digital auction on its OBSOnline platform featuring horses that were either unsold or breezed and scratched from the recently concluded OBS March 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale held March 10-12. The online auction will take place March 27-31.
Horses offered will feature the same hip numbers they were initially assigned for the March sale. They will be available for inspection at the location noted on their page.
Entries for the sale will be available for viewing online beginning at noon ET March 25. Bidding will open at noon March 27 and close at noon March 31.
"It is definitely something new," said Tod Wojciechowski, director of sales for OBS. "The idea behind the Second Chance sale online is to provide an additional instance for consignors to sell their March horses as well as giving buyers another opportunity to reconsider horses they may have passed on or just overlooked."
Medical information including radiographs and video scopes is available in the repository and can be accessed by buyers' veterinarians. Each horse will also have a walking video.
The three-day sale held March 10-12 grossed more than $72 million, with the average sale price at $162,376.
