“I think the quality horses that the consignors sent us for this sale were really on display today,” said TTA Sales Manager Foster Bridewell. “The last horse galloped and dropped the bullet, we had six passes: 10 2/5, and 17 stopped the timer at: 10 3/5; that’s testament to the horses and the training. We are indebted to the people who trusted us to sell to them, and we thank the shippers who brought these athletes to this sale.”
