The other one I was interested in was the Lemon Drop Kid colt who is a half to Keertana, Snow Tap Mountain and Diversy Harbor; but I read he went to JSM Equine and will be resold later this year.
The 1/2 to She Be Wild was withdrawn. I saw her yesterday afternoon, so it must have been a late decision. Also withdrawn were the heavily advertised Foxy Danseur and her 2014 MDO filly, both of whom I photographed yesterday. If Up doesn't top now, I'm going to be surprised. Her 2014 War Front filly will likely also sell well.
Thanks.

On a side note, do you know whatever happened to Evening Sky's half-brother, the nearly black Straight Story?
Yeah, unfortunately he was euthanized in 2012. He had developed laminitis after an injury he sustained in the Dominion Day S.

So um, Black Onyx sold for $7,500 to Stonewall Phoenix. That's damn cheap, but at least it looks like he'll be headed to KY.

I give them credit, though, for not just dropping him in for a tag to part with him. They could have set his reserve higher, but they must not have expected much either.

Winning Image sold to Calumet for $100k. Who do you think they'll pair her up with, someone on their roster I'd guess?

That was a steal for Winning Image.
And Black Onyx, wow, that's cheap. He is a really nice looking horse, and I think had some real talent. Unfortunately he got injured and never came back the same. Like BlindLucky said, at least they didn't drop him in for cheap.
I feel bad for poor Unbridled's Note. He has a lovely pedigree and a ton of speed, and I am surprised nobody wanted to spend a little more on him, even to export.
