Here are pictures of a few of the fillies and mares in the
Fasig-Tipton November sale, which will be held on November 4th in Lexington, Kentucky. All but Palace Rumor, Rhumb Line, Maid of Heaven, and Inglorious are in the
Four Star Sales consignment. Some of the heavy hitters, including dual Breeders
’ Cup winner Mizdirection (a Four Star-grad, like Maid of Heaven before her), are scheduled to arrive from California tomorrow.
Palace Rumor is in line for a major catalogue update if her Classic-winning son Palace Malice wins the Breeders
’ Cup Classic tonight.
