At the Under Tack Show, Hip No. 788, a daughter of Win Win Win consigned by Ocala Stud, sped a quarter in a track record equaling :20 1/5. The bay filly is out of Unanimity, by Union Rags, from the family of grade one stakes winner Discreet Cat.
There are a number of Ontario-breds in the sale that are listed below with their under-tack workout times if available.
On the first day of the under-tack show, a colt by McKinzie from Breech Inlet by Holy Bull worked one furlong in 9 4/5.
