Personal Glory Secures Top Price on Day 2 of Heritage Winter Mixed Sale

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK—JANUARY 22, 2016—Heritage Place's Winter Mixed Sale concluded the second day with declines in average and median. Personal Glory, a grade 1 placed daughter of Walk Thru Fire, brought the day's highest price of $85,000 on a final bid from Vince Genco.

The first two days have grossed $4,805,753 on horses sold. The 480 horses sold have averaged $10,012 and the median is $6,100. There were 55 repurchases through two days.

"The average through two days is off approximately 25% compared to 2015 and we have sold 90% of the horses offered in the first two days," Heritage Place Sales Manager Spence Kidney said Friday evening. "With the price of oil and beating in the stock market last week, the consensus among consignors and repeat buyers is that we are having a good sale. "

Kidney noted that the Top 10 horses through day two of this year grossed $584,000 compared to last year the 2015 Top 10 horses grossed $1,174,000.

"We have not had the amount of six- figure mares we had last year," he added. "We have a good set of horses tomorrow and look forward to another good day of selling horses."
