Fasig-Tipton Calder sale moved forward

Fasig-Tipton has changed the date of its 2008 Calder Selected Sale of

Two-Year-Olds in Training in order to avoid scheduling conflicts with other

sales during the early part of the year. The sale will be held on February 26

instead of March 4. The under tack show has been moved to February 22 from

February 29.

Fasig-Tipton officials rescheduled the sale following discussions with key

juvenile consignors.

"Our Calder sale has always taken place around the end of February and the

beginning of March," Fasig-Tipton President Walt Robertson said. "So, with our

new one under-tack show format, going one week earlier with the sale in 2008

changes little for buyers, but makes life much easier for consignors. We value

input and hope this will ease the concerns we have been hearing from quite a

number of our customers."
