As Blood-Horse stated, numbers were up across the board due to the "Sheik Mo Stimulus Package":
The gross revenue for the 76 horses that sold was $25,470,000, which was a whopping 40.3% increase from the opening session a year ago. The average price grew 10.7% to $335,132, and the median price increased 6.4% to $250,000.
