OBS APRIL PROPELS US 2YO SALES PAST $150-MILLION

This article originally appeared in BloodHorse Daily on April 29th, 2019 .

With 1,221 two-year-olds catalogued – more than had been catalogued in all other US 2-year-old sales combined thus far in 2019 – if there were weaknesses in demand in the US 2-year-old market, they would surely be exposed in the OBS April sale. And though the clearance rate from the catalogue dipped slightly, from 57% to 55%, the sale was indeed very strong: for 672 two-year-olds sold (according to preliminary sale company figures; these will be revised upward as private sales are recorded), the gross was up by 6%, or $4.4-million, to $73,183,000, and the $108,093 average was up 10% over last year’s average of $98,475. Three horses cracked the $1-million barrier (one last year).
Only 59 two-year-olds – less than a third of the 187 catalogued – sold at Fasig-Tipton’s boutique sale at Gulfstream Park on March 27, but the ones that did sell averaged nearly a half-million dollars ($493,475 to be precise) and included a $3.65-million Curlin colt bought by MV Magnier and partners to go to Bob Baffert. Six 2-year-olds made seven figures at Gulfstream, of which MV Magnier’s name was on three. At this point in the North American 2-year-old sales season, 11 two-year-olds have sold for $1-million or more; last year at this time there were four.
But, for once, it hasn’t just been at the very top where demand has been strong. With Fasig-Tipton sales in Maryland and California, and OBS June still to come, there are still challenges for the US 2-year-old market to sustain; but at this point in the proceedings, the metrics look good. In the US sales so far, nearly 200 more 2-year-olds were catalogued than last year, and exactly 100 more (1,186 vs 1,086) were sold. That’s a 10% rise in the number catalogued, and a 9% rise in the number sold; the overall clearance rate from the catalogues is down fractionally but still – as it has been for the last four years – squarely in the 55% range. The combined gross is up 14% from 2018, a gain of $18.7-million, to a total of $154,851,000, according to figures compiled by Brianne Stanley of The Bill Oppenheim Group. The overall average for 1,186 two-year-olds sold so far is $130,566, a 4% gain from the corresponding 2018 average of $125,327.
As has been the case for the past several years, OBS continues to dominate the 2-year-old market. OBS March and April combined catalogued 1,798 two-year-olds, 83% of the 2,154 catalogued so far. The two OBS sales accounted for 985 sold, also 83%, of the 1,186 sold. The two sales have grossed $117,901,500, which is 76% of the $154.8-million total gross (Fasig’s Gulfstream sale accounted for only 5% of the number sold, but 19% of the combined gross – that’s what happens with a $493,475 average). If Keeneland is the world’s supermarket for yearlings, OBS is the supermarket for 2-year-olds, and it’s testimony to the job they’re doing for consignors and buyers alike that the 985 two-year-olds sold at the two OBS sales so far have averaged $119,697, and grossed nearly $118-million. That’s a big marketplace.
A total of 17 North American stallions have had three or more 2-year-olds sell at all the 2-year-old sales to date (including Europe) and have averaged $200,000 or more. Seven have averaged over $375,000, headed by Curlin, who has averaged $1,158,000 for five 2-year-olds sold. Of course when one of them sells for $3,650,000 it’s going to impact the average, but even without that colt Curlin’s other four 2-year-olds averaged $535,000. Three-time Champion Sire Tapit, who already has 15 Black-Type Winners (BTW), six of them Graded, this year, including a G1 Kentucky Derby contender in Tacitus, had four 2-year-olds average $1,025,000. Medaglia D’Oro completed the ultra-elite triumvirate with seven 2-year-olds averaging $621,234. Both Tapit and Medaglia D’Oro, incidentally, come from the blockbuster North American ‘sire class’ with first foals 2006, which also includes Speightstown (4/avg $442,500) and Candy Ride (12/$255,157).
Top first-crop sire American Pharoah, already with two winners and a placed runner from three starters, was inches behind Speightstown with a $442,045 average for 16 sold. Quality Road had a $1-million filly at OBS April and averages $416,667 for three sold; and the number one sales sire by gross, Into Mischief, has had 25 two-year-olds sell for an average of $390,220 and gross sales just short of $10-million at $9,755,500.
In Europe, budding second-crop sire sensation Kingman has had four 2-year-olds average $484,601. Among other European sires with three or more sold in a considerably smaller European 2-year-old market, Darley’s first-crop sire Night of Thunder, a son of Dubawi who was the only horse ever to defeat Kingman, in the 2014 G1 English 2000 Guineas, has had five 2-year-olds average $298,726 – three of those bought by Godolphin at Tattersalls’ Craven Breeze-up Sale April 16-17. Top French sire Siyouni (3/$233,803); No Nay Never (5/$231,943), another budding second-crop sire sensation; and the classy sprinter and sire Starspangledbanner (3/$200,790) also averaged over US$200,000. Besides American Pharoah, among other North American first-crop sires, Liam’s Map had a blockbuster $1.2-million OBS April colt and has averaged $221,929 with 14 sold; Carpe Diem has had 16 juveniles sell, for an average of $208,673; and Sky Kingdom, a two-time G3 winner at 12 furlongs by Empire Maker trained by Bob Baffert, had a colt bring $875,000 at Fasig-Tipton’s Gulfstream sale so has averaged $211,400 for five sold.
