Building off a strong yearling sale held in August this year, confidence in the Ontario-bred market remained strong at the Oct. 19 Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society (Ontario Division) Mixed Sale. This year's sale offered horses of racing age, yearlings, broodmares, weanlings and a stallion share.
The sale saw three individuals share the top price of $35,000:
– A yearling filly by Cairo Prince consigned by Richard G. Hogan, agent
– A yearling Kantharos filly consigned by Hill 'N' Dale Sales Agency, agent
– Blurricane, a stakes-winning broodmare by Rebellion (GB) consigned by Ballycroy Bloodstock, Agent for Ken Lee, Dennis Mitchell and Dan and Gaye Bell.
The average selling price of $9,396.00 was up significantly over 2021, when the figure was $4,251.64. The median this year was $6,250.00 versus $2,000 last year.
“This year's sale offered a good selection of quality horses to meet the needs of the Ontario breeders,” said CTHS Ontario president Peter Berringer. “On behalf of the board of directors and myself, I want to thank the Ontario breeders, the consignors and those who supported our mixed sale. It really does pay to breed, buy and race in Ontario.”
