Fasig-Tipton's November Sale Puts 208 Horses Through the Ring in One Afternoon in Lexington
Fasig-Tipton has set 208 horses in its primary book for the November Sale, which runs Nov. 2 in Lexington. The sale is one session long, and the first horse enters the ring at 2 p.m. That schedule sets the pace of the day: every one of the 208 will be offered in a single afternoon, one after another, until the book is done. Nobody holds a horse back for a second day, and no one comes back tomorrow for what's left. For buyers and consignors, that means the whole market for this catalog comes together in one room over a few hours. Anyone following the hammer will see the complete sale from first lot to last without a break. Fasig-Tipton has chosen a deliberately small format for the day, and a list of 208 is sized to match it. Lexington holds the sale, and the ring opens at 2 p.m. on Nov. 2.
