2017 Lexington Selected Yearling Sale

A look at the Stallions (and more)

Last year’s Lexington auction was legendary with the 800,000 Dollar yearling Tactical Landing, the most expensive horse ever in the sale´s history. 649 yearlings will be in the ring this year from October 3 to October 7 – 45 more than last year. 

Who could beat the 800,000 Dollars of the previous year? Maybe his full sister Primary Target (#77, Muscle Hill – Southwind Serena – Varenne)? Or a half brother to Bee A Magician, Bee The Boss (#15, Muscle Hill – Beehive – Balanced Image)? Good opportunities for a top price, of course, we also see for the offsprings of outstanding mares: Behindclosedoors (#16, yearling by Kadabra), Cedar Dove (#28, yearling by Muscle Hill), Check Me Out (#29, yearling by Trixton), Designed To Be (#35, yearling by Father Patrick), Possess The Magic (#38, yearling by Trixton), Frau Blucher (#40, yearling by Cabtab Hall), Friendly Amigo (#42, yearling by Muscle Hill), Lifetime Pursuit (#53, yearling by Muscle Hill), Honorable Daughter (#84, yearling by Muscle Hill), Susie´s Magic (#89, yearling by Muscle Hill), Southwind Allaire (#119, yearling by Father Patrick), Blur (#132, yearling by Cantab Hall), Caught My Eye (#138, yearling by Muscle Hill), Margarita Momma (#191, yearling by Father Patrick), Vulcanize (#234, yearling by Father Patrick), Vernon Blue Chip (#263, yearling by Muscle Massive), Day For Night (#308, yearling by Muscle Hill), Personal Style (#315, yearling by Cantab Hall), Housethatruthbuilt (#338, yearling by Donato Hanover), Elusive Desire (#469, yearling by Credit Winner) & Armbro Monarch (#521, yearling by Muscle Massive). We guess, that the top prized yearling will be among these horses. Let’s see, if we are right … (Our selection is, of course, purely hypothetical.)
