Keeneland Catalogs 295 for November HRA Sale

Keeneland announced 295 horses have been cataloged for the November Horses of Racing Age Sale to be held Nov. 17, the day after the conclusion of the November Breeding Stock Sale. The catalog is now online at www.Keeneland.com for the single-session auction for racehorses, which will start at noon ET. A print catalog for the sale with Equibase past performances for the entrants will be available at Keeneland by Oct. 31.

“Racehorses have traditionally been a popular segment of the November Breeding Stock Sale, and this is the first year Keeneland is featuring them in a stand-alone auction,” Keeneland Director of Sales Operations Cormac Breathnach said. “Horses of racing age are an important aspect of the market, and this sale is growing to support the trade of racehorses as horsemen relocate to winter racing destinations. We are excited about what this sale offers and what it can become.”
