A daughter of Street Boss who breezed a furlong in :10 3/5 topped Wednesday's Texas Thoroughbred Association 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale at Lone Star Park when hammering for $150,000.
From 110 horses going through the ring, 75 head sold for a total of $1,751,400. The median was $14,500, up 10.69% from last year's $13,100, and the average dipped 9.27% from $25,737 to $23,352. Buy-backs at this year's sale came in at 31.82% compared to 20.75% last year when 84 of 106 head sold for a total of $2,161,900.
“Overall we were pretty pleased with the results,” said sales director Tim Boyce. “I'm happy to see that the median jumped up. Last year we had four horses break $100,000 compared to two this year, so that affected the average a bit, but there was strong demand in the middle of the market as evidenced by the median going up. I heard from several horsemen today who said they were impressed by the quality of horses brought by our consignors.”
