It was all business, as 166 horses sold for over $1.2 million in the Open Session of the Canadian-Bred Yearling Sale held on September 11th at the Woodbine Sales Pavilion, Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto.
Topping the Sale was a Whiskey Wisdom colt out of the Tale of the Cat mare Matching Sox, which sold for $80,000 to Robert Tiller, Agent for 3 Sons Racing Stable. The bay colt was consigned by Kingstead Stables, Agent, and is a full brother to multiple stakes winner Double Malt.
This year’s Open Session of the Sale saw a dramatic increase in gross sales of 46.91% over last year’s Sale, while the average price rose 31% from $5,755 to $7,539.
