“The online portion was a large part of our business during Covid-19 restrictions in 2020 and 2021,” said Atlantic Classic Sale Chair Nicholas Oakes. “Since health restrictions were lifted our buyers spoke with their pocket books with more records set in 2022 and 2023 and the yearlings bought almost entirely on site. We have another fabulous line up for the 2024 edition and after a season of increased purses in virtually every stakes event in Atlantic Canada this season we are excited to get the party started again this Friday morning.”
