Keeneland has announced that two horses have been supplemented to its April Selected Horses of Racing Age Sale, which will begin at 6:30 p.m. ET on Friday, April 25, closing day of the Spring Meet. Click herefor the online catalog.

Keeneland will accept approved supplemental entries to the April Sale until the sale date.

Supplements are:

• Happyhappyboy, a 2-year-old colt by Runhappy who made his debut at Keeneland on April 7. He chased home Wesley Ward’s Pinky Finger in the opening race on the day of the Central Bank Ashland (G1) and finished second in the field of 12. Consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent, he is the third foal out of the winning, multiple stakes-placed mare Chorus Line, by Parading. Happyhappyboy, a full brother to juvenile winner Runlikecarl, is from the family of Grade 1 winner Her Smile.
• Incanto (IRE), a 3-year-old stakes-winning gelding by Mehmas who won the Texas Glitter Stakes on the turf at Gulfstream Park in March for his second victory of the year. He is consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent, and will sell remotely from Santa Anita, where he is currently stabled.

A total of 82 horses are cataloged to the auction, which will follow the 10-race card on April 25. First post that day  is 12:30 p.m. The ninth race is the featured $350,000 Bewitch (G3) Presented by Keeneland Sales. Post time for the final race is 5:09 p.m. 

The April Sale will be livestreamed on Keeneland.com.

Click here for the enhanced digital catalog on Keeneland.com. The catalog, also available through the Equineline Sales Catalog iPad app, includes pedigrees, Daily Racing Form past performances, and Ragozin and Thoro-Graph figures. Consignors may upload photographs and walking videos.

A print catalog is now available for pickup at Keeneland’s Information Center (formerly called the Welcome Center) located near the Grandstand South and Clubhouse entrance. A supplemental catalog will be printed prior to the sale.

Because of the changeable nature of horses of racing age catalogs, consignments will be stabled and a barn order list produced and distributed around Monday, April 21 when the catalog – including supplements – is close to final.
