Heritage Place September Yearling Sale Gets Off To Strong Start Thursday

"Thanks to a large dedicated crowd and tremendous sales staff, we concluded the with a 16% increase in the average on horses sold compared to 2018," Heritage Place General Manager Spence Kidney said late Thursday. "There is still a strong catalog for tomorrow and we look forward to a great sale then as well."
