Fasig-Tipton has catalogued 65 entries for its August Digital Selected Sale, which may now be viewed at digital.fasigtipton.com.  Bidding is officially open and will close this Tuesday, August 30, at 2 pm EDT. 

The catalogue offers selected horses of racing age and breeding stock.  Included among these are 37 offerings from the partial reduction of Lovacres Ranch, which are catalogued as hips 33-69.

“This is our first digital sale following a summer break, and we are very pleased with the quality of our catalogue as there is something for everyone in here,” said Leif Aaron, Fasig-Tipton Director of Digital Sales.  “The partial reduction of Lovacres Ranch should draw significant interest from both breeders and racing stables, as the Lovacres program is annually at the top of breeding and racing ranks in California.”
