The catalog, which may now be viewed at digital.fasigtipton.com, consists of horses of racing age, racing and/or broodmare prospects, in-foal mares, and a stallion share in European champion Almanzor (FR).
“We could not be more pleased with the strength of this catalog,” said Leif Aaron, Fasig-Tipton Director of Digital Sales. “Our goal with this first digital auction was to put together a catalog of high-quality entries and, with the support of our consignors, we have achieved that. Prospective buyers will find something of interest on every page, with horses of racing age in top current form, pedigreed and stakes credentialed broodmare prospects, and mares in-foal on exciting covers.
“Additionally, we are pleased to offer a share in promising young sire Almanzor (FR), who is off to a fantastic start at stud in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres,” added Aaron. “It is a rare offering that adds another level of international interest and intrigue to our inaugural digital sale.”
