America’s Best Racing’s Rachel Miller is at the 2023 Keeneland September Yearling Sale, where hundreds of Thoroughbreds age 1 are offered to prospective buyers, who must make decisions on purchasing them based on their physical appearance (called conformation) and who they’re related to (their pedigree). It’s a risky business that requires a lot of research and a willingness to invest in the distant future, and it creates a marketplace like no other – last year’s Keeneland September sale grossed more than $418 million!
