A Texas-bred filly by Too Much Bling worked an eighth-mile in :10 1/5 on April 2 to post the fastest time at the distance during the under tack show for the Texas 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale at Lone Star Park. The sale, which was previously managed by Fasig-Tipton in partnership with the Texas Thoroughbred Association and Lone Star Park, is now being conducted jointly by the TTA and the track. The sale is set for April 4 at 12 noon Central at the Texas Thoroughbred Sale Pavilion on the grounds of Lone Star.
Asmussen Horse Center, agent, consigned the above mentioned fastest horse at an eighth-mile. The gray or roan filly is out of the Action This Day mare Soft Music, who has produced two multiple winners from as many starters.
From two horses working a quarter-mile, a Kentucky-bred filly from the first crop of Gemologist posted the fastest clocking of :22 3/5. She is consigned by Brody Veal, agent, and is a half sister to stakes winner Uncle Brennie.
“We were very pleased with the turnout at Lone Star Park and anticipate a good turnout for the sale on Tuesday,” said Mary Ruyle, executive director of the Texas Thoroughbred Association. “We appreciate all the support from the consignors and the interest we have seen already from buyers.”
