Default F-T Feb. Mixed Sale results.. well, mixed

Indian Charlie filly tops Fasig-Tipton sale at $245K
By Glenye Cain Oakford

LEXINGTON, Ky. - A $245,000 Indian Charlie filly who is closely related to two-time champion Indian Blessing topped Fasig-Tipton Kentucky's winter mixed sale here. SF Bloodstock purchased the dark bay or brown yearling from the Gainesway agency. The filly is out of the stakes-placed Matchlite mare Lady's Legacy, the second dam of Indian Blessing. Indian Blessing, also by Indian Charlie, was 2007's champion juvenile filly and 2008's champion female sprinter. The session-leading filly sold as Hip No. 76.

RESULTS

Tuesday's one-day auction sold 183 horses for $2,821,500, down 7 percent from last year's total for 192 horses. The average price held almost level with last year, falling slightly from $15,899 in 2010 to $15,418 this year. But the median jumped 14 percent, from $5,000 to $5,700 this year. Buy-backs were 23 percent, as compared with 29 percent in 2010.
