The Fasig-Tipton Kentucky Winter Mixed Sale, originally scheduled next Monday and Tuesday, Feb. 7-8, will be pushed back to Tuesday and Wednesday, Feb. 8-9. An ice storm is forecasted for the Lexington area, prompting Fasig-Tipton officials to delay the sale.
“Our area is currently under an ice storm warning from tomorrow morning through Friday morning, and in the interests of safety we have decided to push the sale back by one day,” said Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning on Wedneday. “This will ensure that horses and sale participants will have ample time to arrive on the sales grounds and begin inspections when conditions are safe to do so.”
Both sessions will begin at 10 a.m. on their respective days. Hips 1-300 will now be offered Tuesday, while Hips 301 through the supplement (currently up to Hip 606), will be offered Wednesday.
