New Indiana sale premieres this fall

Yearling buyers who participate in Indiana—and those who buy for other programs—will have a new sale on the calendar this fall, thanks to the launch of the Indiana Premier Yearling Sale, set for Sept. 23 and 24 at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis.

The announcement was made Monday by sale manager Randy Manges of Lexington Selected Yearling Sales Co., which will oversee the new auction.

"We're excited about the new venture and setting up shop in Indiana, as the racetracks and sire stakes there are certainly headed in the right direction," Manges said. "We've already received firm commitments from several major breeders in the Midwest, and everything's in place." Manges noted that Midland Acres, Victory Hill Farm and Steiner Stock Farm are already in the initial catalogue with impressive consignments.

"What's really great about the sale this first year is that we've got some fabulous up-and-coming sires with first crops set to debut this fall. Jailhouse Jesse, Always A Virgin, Justice Hall and Sand Shooter all had outstanding initial Indiana books, and we're looking forward to selling those foals. Buyers are going to be impressed with what they see," he added.

The sale starts on the Friday after the Little Brown Jug. "We're definitely planning daytime sessions, with a morning start time to be determined, as we know owners and trainers will need to get to Indiana Downs for their 6:55 post time," he said.

The sale is currently accepting entries and will do so until its April 15 deadline.

Consignors planning to enter or wanting more information are asked to call (859) 255-8431 or fax (859) 255-0302, or email Lexington Selected at info@lexingtonselected.com.
