81, War Front colt out of the Galileo mare Say, goes for $400,000. A bargain? Or an RNA?

Not as much of the Danzig in that one, I thought.

This Sealy Hill is going to do well.

The auctioneer said there were 7 or 8 parties bidding. Can't wait to see who won.

Not surprised she went for $$$$...she looks like a runner and, with her female family, likely to be a good broodmare.

Flatter 1/2 bro to Nyquist in the ring and they look nothing alike.

Mare already produced 2 GSWs, I think.

#84, the Flatter half to Nyquist, is a good-looking chestnut. Goes for $460,000. RNA?

Larry Best. Feel like I should know who that is, but I don't.

Distorted Humor may not be quite as fashionable as he once was, but I'd take this colt o/o Serenading. He is NICE.

BaroqueAgain1 · Mon Sep 11, 2017 5:33 pm

85. Distorted Humor colt out of Canada champ A.P. Indy mare Serenading...$700,000.

#89, the Tapit/Serena's Cat colt half to Honor Code, is getting fireworks. $1,050,000.

mariasmon · Mon Sep 11, 2017 5:35 pm

The 1/2 to Honor Code hammered at $1,050,000, exactly what he brought as a weanling last year.

Already reported as RNA.

Kinda what I figured. He was an expensive weanling.

88, a Tapit filly out of Siren Serenade, has a great female family. $500,000.

68, Scat Daddy colt out of Practice (Smart Strike), handsome bay, goes for $800,000. That's more like it.

MC Bloodstock bought the cheaper one and Godolphin (!) got the more expensive one.
