“The London Classic Yearling Sale supports the event which will offer bolstered purses for each of the finals,” said Director of Equine Programming, Greg Blanchard. “Supporting the local industry is important to us and this helps us do that while invigorating a series of races that has been traditionally important to our local horse people.”

Nominations for the London Classic Sale Series close on April 1, 2025. Sellers and consignors are also reminded that the deadline to enter this year’s London Classic Yearling Sale is Monday, April 21.
