The 2023 Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society Ontario Mixed Sale was held at the Woodbine Sales Pavilion on Oct. 18. The annual event experienced the second-highest average and median in the last seven years.
A total of 48 horses sold during this year's sale for revenues of $252,400 (Canadian). The average sale price was $5,258 and the median was $3,000.
The top yearling was Hip 5, a filly by Where's The Ring out of Quiet Action who sold for $13,000 (Canadian) to Michelle Love. The highest selling broodmare, Hip 61C Maritime Breeze, sold for $27,000 to Robert Marzilli and her weanling filly by Town Prize sold for $19,000 to T.H. Bloodstock.
“The annual mixed sale is important to our breeders in Ontario. It provides a necessary venue to restructure and improve their breeding stock,” commented Peter Berringer, president of the CTHS Ontario Division. “This sale continues to attract new buyers from across Canada as we saw an increased number of buyers from Western Canada.”
“While our average and median numbers were down over the 2022 mixed sale, we sold the same number of horses indicating it still pays to breed, buy and sell in Ontario.”
