OKLAHOMA CITY, OK—NOVEMBER 1, 2019—Heritage Place kicked off their 41st annual Fall Mixed Sale today with a strong showing. Comparisons to the opening session last year that included a world record $2.1 million price for champion and Moonin The Eagle and $200,000 for world champion and champion sire Wave Carver are hard to make.

A 13-year-old daughter of leading sire Mr Jess Perry brought the top bid of $95,000 in Friday's opening session.
