 Year after year Mill Ridge Sales
ranks among
the nation's leading consignors.
While selling far fewer horses than other top consignors, between 20% and 450% fewer, Mill Ridge is consistently at the top
by gross sales. Mill Ridge takes pride in
maintaining the tradition of Hal Price Headley, and today his daughter Alice Chandler,
continues to allow horses to be raised as close to nature as possible. Her belief
in the land for raising the strongest most competitive horse has been her driving
force. It’s more about producing the blend of athlete and racehorse, rather than
purely a commercial product. True to it’s slogan of “raising and selling racehorses”,
Mill Ridge is ranked #1 by percentage of graded stakes winners,
4.5%, from upwards of 100 yearlings sold (MarketWatch 6/09/06).
Even though it is customary for records to be established with this consignment
like the $9.7 million record September yearling sold in 2005, her ultimate reward
is that this commercial success translates into top class racetrack performance. |
