Final Chart for Keeneland September

By Ian Tapp

Halfway through the 2013 Keeneland September sale we looked at the chart of sold yearlings by hip number (see blog). At that point the median was $120K. The updated chart below shows how second-half sales tempered that figure to a more reasonable $50K (+11% vs. 2012).

The average price of $102,220 reflected a 17% gain compared to the 2012 figure. Interestingly, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is also up 17% compared over the past 12 months.
