The two-day Fasig Tipton Winter Mixed Sale, February 6 and 7 in Lexington, Kentucky, wrapped up with strong numbers across the board.
Over the course of the two-day sale, 402 horses sold for $14,105,200, the second highest gross in sale history, behind only last year’s record-shattering gross. The average was $35,088, third best in sale history. The median was $15,000, tied for third best historically to the $16,000 record for median set in 2014 and equaled last year. The RNA rate was just 13.9%, the second lowest in the past 10 years.
From a Canadian standpoint there were a handful of buyers including SHIRLEY CAMILLERI, who owns Camhaven Farms in Caledon, ON with husband Tony. The Camilleris have grown their Camhaven into one of the top rehabilitation and training centres in Canada and they added to their small broodmare band this week.
