GSP Two-Year-Old COUNTY FINAL leads latest July Horses of Racing Age Entries

Thursday, July 9, 2020

Fasig-Tipton has catalogued an additional 11 entries to its July Horses of Racing Age Sale, increasing the size of the catalogue to 176 entries.  The live auction will be conducted with horses, buyers, and sellers in attendance.

These new entries are catalogued as hips 166-176, and may now be viewed online.  This latest group of entries includes:

  • COUNTY FINAL (Hip 166): Versatile two-year-old colt captured his debut on turf at Churchill Downs on June 5, going wire-to-wire to win by an easy four lengths.  He stepped up in class and switched to Churchill’s dirt surface for his second start in the Bashford Manor S. (G3) on June 27.  Carving out swift fractions to lead most of the way, he finished a strong second to undefeated CAZADERO, one of the nation’s leading two-year-olds.  He is out of TAPAJO, a stakes winning daughter of TAPIT that is a 100% winner-producer.  COUNTY FINAL is consigned by John Ennis Training, agent.

  • SALOW (Hip 172): Three-year-old son of DISTORTED HUMOR captured his career debut in eye-catching fashion on July 3 at Gulfstream Park.  Going one mile on turf, he came impressively from off the pace to win by 2 ¾ lengths in a swift final time of 1:34 2/5.  His dam, EVE GISELLE, was a graded stakes winner and multiple stakes winner of nearly $300,000.  She is a 100% winner-producer, including stakes placed I’M PATRIOTIC. SALOW is consigned by ELiTE, agent.

These entries may also be viewed in the sale’s enhanced online catalogue, which features pedigrees, race videos, statistical links, Ragozin “sheet” numbers, and real-time Daily Racing Form and Thoromanager past performances.

Print catalogues will be available on-site at Fasig-Tipton by Friday, July 10.
