    BALTIMORE - Many young horses begin their road to Triple Crown glory at the annual Timonium auction at the Baltimore County fairgrounds.

    That's racing's version of the NFL draft combine.

    The Fasig-Tipton 2-year-old training sale takes place right after the Preakness Stakes at the Timonium Fairgrounds.

    WJZ went behind the scenes to bring you the sights and sounds of this fast-paced spectacle.

    "We are looking for athleticism, confirmation, soundness and stability," trainer Ron Moquett said.

    Mage, this year's Kentucky Derby winner, was purchased last May at this sale.

    The names of other great champions purchased in Timonium are on the walls of the sales ring.
