Lexington, KY — The supplement catalog and updated racelines booklet for Monday’s (Jan. 16) Meadowlands January Select Mixed Sale are now available on the Tattersalls website and on the Equineline Sales Catalog app for the iPad.

The January Mixed is billed as the “Winter Racehorse Market” and the 2017 renewal remains true to form. Of the 258 head in the catalog and supplement, close to 200 are racehorses and racing prospects.

“As of Monday (Jan. 10), racehorses in the sale posted 23 wins in just the last two weeks,” said sale manager David Reid. “Like always, there are horses racing at every level and coming in from everywhere, but this year buyers will notice that the sale is extremely strong in 2017 4-year-olds.”

Those horses include a number of prominent stakes winners from last season, perhaps the most notable among them Breeders Crown elimination and Little Brown Jug elimination winner Western Fame p,3,1:50.1h ($453,674); Art Rooney winner Missile J p,3,1:51 ($313,902); and NJSS final winner Katies Rocker p,3,1:50.3 ($405,069).

Other 4-year-olds certainly on buyers’ radar are multiple stakes winners Lagerfeld 3,1:53.2f ($668,621), Dr J Hanover p,3,1:50.1f ($326,773) and Gerries Sport p,3,1:49.2 ($217,246).

“Seven of the 4-year-olds in the sale have each earned more than $300,000, so for those in the market for open class and top-condition horses, they’ll fit the bill,” Reid said.

The sale will get underway in the Meadowlands back paddock at 11 a.m. on the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. Horses will be in and available for inspection either on Sunday (Jan. 15) or the morning of the sale.
