Constitution’s first 2-year-olds offered at auction were topped by a $350,000 colt on Wednesday at the OBS March 2-year-olds in Training Sale. His final average at the two-day sale was $180,667, more than 12 times his stud fee.
Consigned by Eisaman Equine, agent, hip No. 512 went to Narvick International for Prince Sultan Bin Mish al Saud. The regally-bred chestnut is out of Kentucky Oaks (G1) winner Summerly and is a half-brother to stakes horses Allez Marie and Kentucky Reign.
With his first 2-year-olds to race in 2019, Constitution has been consistently well-supported in the breeding shed, with 425 mares in his first three books. The multiple Grade 1-winning son of Tapit is standing at WinStar this year for $15,000, stands and nurses.
