The digital auction for 2-year-olds and horses of racing age was conducted from Jan. 23-30 and marks the third auction held under the OBSOnline banner.

The top selling 3-year-old was Hip 403, a daughter of Practical Joke who sold for $46,000 to Daniel McGreevy. Consigned by Wavertree Stables, the filly is out of the Quality Road mare Happy Road and is from the female family of Grade I winner Bustin Stones.
