The catalogue and racelines for the Meadowlands January Select Mixed Sale – this year, with an emphasis on ‘mixed’ – are now available for download at tattersallsredmile.com.

The print catalogue will be mailed later this week and the Equineline app catalog will be up by Monday afternoon (December 18).

The sale will be held on Martin Luther King Jr. Day (Monday, January 15) in the back paddock at the Meadowlands Racetrack. The broodmare section will kick off the sale at 11 a.m.

“The January sale has always been called ‘the winter racehorse market’ and that certainly holds true,” said sale manager David Reid. “But this year, within all the categories, this is the strongest sale horse-for-horse we’ve had in a number of years.

“I think we have the highest-quality mares we’ve ever catalogued, to go along with some hard-to-find stallion shares and really outstanding short yearlings.”

In-foal mares include the complete dispersal of the estate of George F. Hempt, a reduction from William G. Mulligan and mares from White Birch Farm. Featured throughout are mares in foal to Somebeachsomewhere, Always B Miki, Sweet Lou, American Ideal, Cantab Hall, Kadabra, and Trixton.

More than 170 racehorses are catalogued, led by an outstanding group of rising four-year-olds like Bluegrass and Simcoe winner Art Scene, Kentucky Futurity winner Snowstorm Hanover and multiple stakes winner Miso Fast.

Stakes winning racemares are part of that racehorse section, and according to Reid, feature many that carry top commercial pedigrees and could be purchased to race and later breed.
