Media Release - Wednesday December 6

Keeneland has cataloged 1,582 horses for its 60th January Horses of All Ages Sale, to be held January 8-11, 2018 including yearlings by Triple Crown winner American Pharoah.

The interactive January Sale catalog is available online at Keeneland.com . Print catalogs are to be mailed the week of Dec. 18.

The catalog includes 677 broodmares and broodmare prospects, 628 yearlings, 264 horses of racing age, and 13 stallions and racing or stallion prospects.

"Results of Keeneland's September Yearling Sale and November Breeding Stock Sale indicate a strong market for quality Thoroughbreds that is expected to continue at the January Sale," Keeneland Vice President of Racing and Sales Bob Elliston said.

The January Sale catalog features broodmares in foal to 154 stallions, among them leading sires American Pharoah, Awesome Again, Bernardini, Candy Ride (ARG), Distorted Humor, Empire Maker, Hard Spun, Into Mischief, Lemon Drop Kid, Liam's Map, Malibu Moon, Medaglia d'Oro, More Than Ready, Nyquist, Orb, Palace Malice, Point of Entry, Quality Road and Speightstown.
