Tagermeen's $1.5-Million Bid Keeps Keeneland September Humming

Tagermeen Racing was back at the rostrum Saturday, this time signing for $1.5 million to secure a colt by Not This Time, hip 1275, as Keeneland's September sale moved into its fifth session. The bid extended a buying run that has kept Tagermeen among the week's most active shoppers at the Lexington auction house, where sires like Not This Time have anchored some of the sale's strongest pages. Hip 1275 now heads off as one of the session's headline purchases, another young prospect added to a roster that has grown steadily with each day of bidding. Keeneland September remains the proving ground where America's next generation of racehorses changes hands, and Tagermeen's presence there this week has been hard to miss.
