Harness: 2019 Goshen Yearling Sale date announced

Goshen Standardbred Horse Sales has announced that the 2019 Goshen Yearling Sale will be held on Sunday (Sept. 8) at the Mark Ford Training Center in Middletown, NY. The date marks the fifth anniversary of the sale that has grown into the pre-eminent outlet for buying New York bred trotters and pacers within the Empire State.

The Goshen Yearling Sale has annually offered high quality stock from top breeders that include Hanover Shoe Farms, Winbak Farm, Blue Chip Farm, Concord Stud, Cameo Hills Farm and Boxwood Farm and has presented well-bred yearlings that are eligible to the lucrative New York Sire Stakes program each year. The sale has grown into the state’s preferred Standarbreds yearling venue for both the buyer and consignor.

“We are excited to announce this year’s date and to get things rolling towards another great sale” said Mark Ford, President of the Goshen Standardbred Horse Sales Co. “Last year’s sale was a great success and many of the horses purchased there will be making their raceway debuts only a few months from now in preparation for stakes season.”
