Keeneland September Sale
 
Some of the big hips are coming up in the next few... some of the big names are the Indy-Serena's Song colt, Mineshaft-Better Than Honour colt, Vindication-Serena's Tune colt, Gone West-Farda Amiga filly, Touch Gold-Golden Attraction filly, Mineshaft-Gold Mover colt, Unbridled's Song-Goulash colt, Elusive Quality-I'll Get Along filly, Vindication-Silverbulletday filly, Empire Maker-Roll Over Baby filly among others today...

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:39 PM

The Empire Maker-Roll Over Baby went for 245k I believe... very low price in comparison to what her siblings have brought and accomplished.

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:41 PM

The Ruby Ransom-Empire Maker filly is in the ring. This is one of the best branches of Myrtlewood/Frizette around. Strong Canadian branch of that family.

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:42 PM

She went for 600k.

I don't think the Indy/Serena's Song will sell well; the only comments the consigner made about him in the BH were about how the colt is not a fluent, good walker like SS's other offspring. He basically said that the colt would sell well if buyers can accept this major flaw.......Looking forward to the Mineshafts, though. I've heard the 1/2 to Jazil is nice, but I'm really excited about the Dear Birdie 1/2 to Birdtown.

If I could walk away w/ two horses from the sale my picks would be the sibling to Jazil & Leroidanimaux.

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:48 PM

The Dear Birdie should sell well. I believe he goes through the ring tomorrow. We are about to find out about the Serena's Song colt... he's coming through the ring now.

Betsy 09-11-2006 12:49 PM

No Mineshafts have sold yet, right? Thanks!

So far, seems like a rather humdrum sale except for the Storm Cats

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:51 PM

Well the Serena's Song colt went for 1.5 mil. Disappointing to say the least. The Serena's Tune is next.

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:52 PM

Im not sure... I just started watching. My brother is there though buying and i've heard it seems like its a very solid sale.

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:52 PM

The Vindication-Serena's Tune is a beauty... love his head.

Balletto 09-11-2006 12:54 PM

The Serena's Tune just went for 2.8 mil.

Shadwell picked up a Mineshaft colt for $400K+, Hip 2

I'm a NY guy and I'm a value breeder. This sale is out of my realm but I'll be watching with interest.

Sumitas,
It's way over me too. Interesting.
All we need is a NY bred to be the next TC winner. Hope!
They'll be flocking.

Wow, I can't believe the Empire Maker filly out of Ruby Randsome (from the family of Amelia Bearheart) only went for $600K

Balletto 09-11-2006 01:03 PM

The Silverbulletday is an out.

slotdirt 09-11-2006 01:15 PM

I'm interested in the full to Smarty, obviously.
