The Ocala Breeders' Sales Company has added a total of 49 additional yearlings to its upcoming October Yearling Sale, which will be held Tuesday, Oct. 8 and Wednesday, Oct. 9. Twenty yearlings (hips 205-224) were added to the sale's select session, which begins at noon on the 8th; 29 youngsters (hips 694-722) were added to the open session, scheduled for 10:30 a.m. the following day.
“We were delighted with the response to the supplemental entry program a year ago, in both the quality of the offerings and their reception in the marketplace,” said OBS Director of Sales Tod Wojciechowski. “We have again cataloged a number of horses perhaps not shown at their best advantage earlier in the season, but the additional time to mature should enhance their appeal.”
The entire catalog can be viewed at www.obssales.com and includes the first group of walking videos accompanying Selected yearlings. More videos will be added in the coming days and will also be available o the Equineline app. A supplemental print catalog will be available on the sales grounds.
“The evolution from still photos to walking videos has been well received by both consignors and buyers,” Wojciechowski said. “The videos provide a much more meaningful way to gain information in advance of the sale.”
