About 100 horses have been cataloged for the single-sesssion Texas Summer Yearling and Mixed Sale scheduled for Monday, Aug. 26 at 12 p.m. at the Texas Thoroughbred Sales Pavilion on the grounds of Lone Star Park near Dallas. The sale is sponsored jointly by the Texas Thoroughbred Association and Lone Star Park.
The sale will be the first held in Texas since the passage of legislation that is expected to add as much as $25 million annually to purses, state-bred incentives and other programs to benefit the Texas horse industry.
“The Southwest region is even stronger now that the Texas racing and breeding industry should be revitalized by recent legislation,” said Sales Director Tim Boyce. “We have a strong group of Texas-breds in this sale for those looking to jump in on a program ready to trend up, and we also have solid representation from Oklahoma and Louisiana for those looking to participate in those programs.”
The yearling session will be immediately followed by a mixed session with broodmares and horses of racing age.
