Catalog For Fasig-Tipton July Yearling Sale Now Online

Fasig-Tipton has cataloged 348 selected yearlings for The July Sale, to be held on Tuesday, July 13, at the company's Newtown Paddocks in Lexington, Ky. The sale will begin at 10 a.m.

“Fasig-Tipton selected yearling sales return to their traditional spots on the calendar in 2021, starting with a strong renewal of The July Sale,” said Fasig-Tipton president Boyd Browning. “The sale will begin with the Freshman Sire Showcase – a long-time element of the July Sale that we are reintroducing this year – which will offer the first yearlings by 2021's exciting group of freshman sires. The sale will then transition into the more proven sire-heavy part of the catalog. Overall, our 'proven' sire-power has increased again this year.”

According to statistics recently released by The BloodHorse MarketWatch, Fasig-Tipton July is ranked number two among major North American yearling sales by percentage of graded stakes winners, stakes winners, and earners of $150,000 or more from horses sold. July only trails Fasig-Tipton's Saratoga Sale in these categories.

“If you want to achieve success at the highest levels, you need to buy in July,” continued Browning. “The sale annually offers precocious, athletic yearlings, and one look at this year's catalogue cover will tell you the quality of runners July annually generates.”

The front cover of this year's catalog features recent Grade 1 winners Bell's the One, Kimari, and Speech. Pictured on the back cover are five prominent 2021 graded stakes winners in Chess's Dream, Kalypso, Leinster, Mighty Mischief, and Special Reserve. Just this past weekend, July graduate Lone Rock led a Fasig-Tipton trifecta in the Grade 2 Brooklyn Stakes on Belmont day.

Nominations are also now open for Fasig-Tipton's July Selected Horses of Racing Age Sale, which will be held the day prior to The July Sale, on Monday, July 12. Fasig-Tipton will accept nominations up until sale time; however to make the initial catalog release, entries should be finalized by June 18.

“The market for racehorses is very strong right now, and the sale's placement ahead of the lucrative summer race meets make this auction immensely popular with buyers,” Browning noted.

The July Sale catalog may now be viewed online and will also be available via the Equineline catalogue app. Print catalogs will be available beginning June 14.

Freshman Sire Showcase Returns To Fasig-Tipton July Sale

Fasig-Tipton will reintroduce the “Freshman Sire Showcase” as part of the company's 2021 July Selected Yearlings Sale, which will be held on July 13 and 14 at the company's headquarters in Lexington, Ky.

Fasig-Tipton will devote a section of the catalog exclusively to yearlings by stallions with their first crop of yearlings in 2021. Last held in 2010, the new sire showcase was a highly successful element of the July Sale for many years.

“We believe that 2021 is the ideal time to bring back the Freshman Sire Showcase,” said Fasig-Tipton president Boyd Browning. “The market has cycled back to a point where progeny of first-crop sires are in high demand once again, and this year's class of freshman sires is an exciting group from top to bottom.

“For many years, sellers had great success showcasing individuals by first-crop yearling sires in July when we offered a new sire showcase,” continued Browning. “This concept enables sellers to separate and showcase quality individuals by freshman sires at the first yearling sale of the year, and also provides opportunities for stud farms to market and promote their young stallions.”

The July Selected Yearlings Sale will once again be preceded by the July Selected Horses of Racing Age Sale on July 12. First held in 2013, the popular H.O.R.A. sale has benefitted the yearling sale, attracting a higher number of end-users and trainers to the sales grounds.

Nominations are now open for Fasig-Tipton's three summer selected yearling sales: the July Sale, the 100th Saratoga Sale, and the New York-bred Yearlings Sale. Prospective sellers can nominate and learn more at selectedyearlings.fasigtipton.com.
