Open class pacer Jacks Legend N fetched a six-figure price after being sold in an online auction that concluded on Friday (June 19).
Owned by Barbara and Jim Boese, Jacks Legend N sold on onGait.com for $205,000. The six-year-old New Zealand-bred son of Bettors Delight had been racing exclusively at Yonkers since arriving from downunder last summer. Delaware-based horseman Josh Green was the winning bidder for his partners Richard Lombardo of Ohio, Dave Kryway of Ontario and Eric Good of Maryland. Green reportedly plans on continuing to race him at Yonkers.
As part of their stable dispersal, the Boeses consigned a total of four classy racehorses to auction. Trotting mare Weslynn Dancer brought a high bid of $106,000 from Derek Ivany of Ontario. Kaitlyn N was purchased by Mike Prater of Illinois for $76,000 and New England’s James Nickerson picked up Cays Blessing for $41,000.
onGait.com is also preparing for its Annual Fall Yearling Sale with "many large farms already committing their consignments."
