Fasig Tipton has horses for the middle market at Timonium in May. That Florida sale is very hard to get into. They don't typically take horses that are going to to sell for $30,000. The average horse at that sale sold for $280,000 in 2014 and the median price was $180,000. In 2013 it was $385,000 and $300,000. We will see if they allow Frank's horses back next year. I doubt it. It cheapens the sale.
