The highest price of the sale was the $400,000 bid on the internet for a flashy chestnut colt from the last crop of champion and leading sire Speightstown, consigned by Dan Mooney's Huntington Stud Farm, agent. The ticket was signed by Mike DePaulo, as agent.

The top priced filly was a light grey daughter of Frosted  from Spani Lou, by Spaniard, who was consigned by Sherry McLean's Northern Dawn Farm as agent and bought by Michael and Charmaine Langlois of Orillia for $145,000. The Langlois family have only been in racing for less than four years but they bought 2023 Plate winner Paramount Prince at the 2021 yearling sale.
