Fasig-Tipton Kentucky has cataloged a total of 640 horses for its Winter Mixed Sale, to be conducted Monday and Tuesday, beginning at 10 a.m. (EST).

The initial catalog of 580 has been increased by 60 supplemental entries. Monday’s opener comprises Hip Nos. 1-326. Hips 327-580 are set to go through the ring Tuesday, immediately followed by the supplemental catalog.

“Being the last mixed sale of the season, the Kentucky Winter Mixed Sale offers buyers tremendous opportunities before the start of breeding season,” Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning said upon the release of the original catalog. “Stakes credentialed racing and broodmare prospects, a quality contingent of in-foal mares, and 175 ‘short’ yearlings make this a can’t-miss catalog.”

Monday’s offerings include 17-year-old Group 2 victress SARASOTA (Arg) (Luhuk), dam of Grade 1 hero Salutos Amigos (Salute the Sarge) and Grade 2 scorer Sarah’s Secret (Leroidesanimaux [Brz]), in foal to Curlin (Hip 78); BACK FLIP (Super Saver), a stakes-placed half-sister to La Brea (G1) winner Constellation (Bellamy Road), in foal to Bodemeister (Hip 242); and Grade 3 winner SUPER MAJESTY (Super Saver), a racing/broodmare prospect (Hip 238).

Among those on tap Tuesday are racing/broodmare prospect CINNAMON SPICE (Candy Ride [Arg]), a half-sister to Grade 1 victor and promising young stallion Violence (Medaglia d’Oro) (Hip 345); broodmare prospect HEAVENLY TAP (Tapit), whose second dam is Heavenly Prize (Seeking the Gold) (Hip 403); and such stallions as VALUE PLUS (Unbridled’s Song) (Hip 573) and NOTIONAL (In Excess [Ire]) (Hip 580).

The supplemental catalog features Grade 1 winner DR. ZIC (Milwaukee Brew), in foal to Constitution (Hip 611); a racing/broodmare prospect SOARWITHTHEBIRDS (Giant’s Causeway), a half-sister to Canadian Horse of the Year Up with the Birds (Stormy Atlantic) (Hip 624); and the Grade 2-placed racing/broodmare prospect GLORY (Tapit), the last lot as Hip 640.
