OBS consolidates selected 2YO sales in 2011

Posted: Saturday, August 21, 2010 2:55 PM

The Ocala Breeders’ Sales Co. will consolidate the February and March sales of selected two-year-olds in training into a single selected sale in 2011.

OBS announced the elimination of the February sale in a press release on Friday outlining its schedule for seven auctions in 2011.

The OBS March sale will be held March 15-16.

“The OBS selected two-year-old sales have a long history of producing top-class racehorses,” OBS General Manager Tom Ventura said. “As two-year-old consignors have fewer horses to offer than in years past, OBS will concentrate its efforts in showcasing selected two-year-olds in March.

“We expect the OBS March sale to be on the calendars of all serious buyers. Kantharos, a graduate of our 2010 March sale, is currently at the head of his class after winning Monday’s Saratoga Special [Stakes (G2)], his second graded stakes victory.”

The OBS Championship stakes, run in February since 2007, return to their original slot in the calendar and will be held on Monday, March 14, the day before the March selected sale. 

OBS 2011 auction schedule
Winter mixed sale   January 18-19
March two-year-old sale   March 15-16                                           
Spring two-year-old sale   April 18-21

August selected yearling sale   August 23
August yearling sale   August 24-25
