Records Possible at Fasig-Tipton Calder Auction
Published February 28th, 2006
Tuesday’s Fasig-Tipton Florida select sale of 2-year-olds in training has a lot to live up to in its 2006 edition. Last year, its gross revenue, average price, and median price all were world records for a juvenile auction. In addition, Ever Shifting, a Tale of the Cat – Carry All colt, became the highest-priced 2-year-old in training ever sold publicly when he brought $5.2 million.However, Fasig-Tipton president Walt Robertson said he “wouldn’t be shocked” to see even more world records at Calder Race Course.”We’ve set a pretty high bar, but we’ve got as good a bunch of horses this year as we’ve ever had, and it may be the best,” he said. “The pinhookers bought good horses last year.”
