The Foundation of Tomorrow


Held each fall, the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale delivers a world-class marketplace for breeding stock, weanlings and racehorses. This globally attended sale offers sellers unmatched access to buyers seeking top bloodlines and future champions, because here, every horse has the potential to shape the next generation.

"There was plenty of international presence. We have always had strong European presence, but the Australian presence was fantastic, and the Japanese have been coming for decades and seem to be stronger year after year. The globalization of the market has been great."

"In North America I don’t think there is a consumer experience that competes with Keeneland. Their commitment to the facility and the upgrades is like a love letter to the Thoroughbred industry. They’re saying we believe in our business, and we believe in you."
