Month: July 2023

A total of 264 yearlings are cataloged in the 2023 Texas Summer Yearling Sale catalog, marking one of the largest yearling books in TTA Sales' history. The catalog features 52 more horses in the main body of the book than the 2022 edition of this sale.

“The increase in entries points to the success our sales have had,” TTA Sales Director Foster Bridewell said. “We've continued to push to grow our sales as a healthy marketplace to buy and sell for not only our regional buyers and sellers, but also attracting interested folks from all over the country.”

Top sires like Bolt d'Oro, Connect, Classic Empire, Liam's Map, Malibu Moon, and Practical Joke as well as freshman stallions Echo Town, Global Campaign, Honor A. P., Improbable, Instagrand, McKinzie, Mr Money, Spun to Run, and Vekoma are represented. Regional stallions such as American Freedom, Bobby's Wicked One, Bradester, Competitive Edge, El Deal, King Zachary, My Golden Song, Star Guitar, and Too Much Bling sire yearlings in the book.

“We're proud and grateful of the offerings our breeders, owners, and consignors have brought forward for our 2023 Texas Summer Yearling sale,” Bridewell said. “We have a diverse book in terms of stallions and pedigrees and we think this could be one of our best sales yet.”

Fasig-Tipton will offer a share in leading young sire Not This Time at its upcoming Saratoga Sale. The share, consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency, will be the first offering in the auction's Tuesday session on the evening of Aug. 8.

Not This Time has quickly established himself as one of North America's leading sires. He finished sixth in the general sire rankings in 2022, trailing only Into Mischief, Curlin, Gun Runner, Uncle Mo, and Tapit.

“The Not This Time share is a very exciting addition to our Saratoga Sale this year,” said Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning. “He is off to a remarkable start at stud, and at just nine years old, he has a very exciting future ahead of him.”

From just three crops to race, Not This Time has already sired five Grade 1 winners, 11 graded stakes winners, and 27 black type winners. His progeny include Epicenter, Eclipse Champion 3-Year-Old Male of 2022; Sibelius, winner of this year's Group 1 Dubai Golden Shaheen; Up To The Mark, winner of the G1 Manhattan Stakes and G1 Turf Classic Stakes; Just One Time, winner of the G1 Madison Stakes; and Princess Noor, winner of the G1 Del Mar Debutante and subsequently a $2.9-million broodmare purchase.

Regally bred, Not This Time is a son of three-time leading sire Giant's Causeway. His first dam, Miss Macy Sue, was a graded stakes winner and track record setter who finished third in the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint.

Not This Time is a half-brother to three stakes winners, including Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile winner and successful young sire Liam's Map. Further information about Not This Time may be found by clicking here.

Prospective buyers should contact Taylor Made's Ben Taylor at (859) 221-1464 or Travis White at (859) 396-3508 for further information, including the syndicate agreement.

Online bidding and phone bidding on the Not This Time share will be available.

The 102nd Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale will take place on Monday and Tuesday, Aug. 7-8, in the Humphrey S. Finney Pavilion in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. Sessions will begin each evening at 6:30 p.m.
