Back Flip (2012 Super Saver/For Royalty filly) of FB fame, she was the foal that literally did a back flip while trying to stand after being born.

Also, War Story and Frac Daddy.

I think these are from the 2014 catalog.

Aren't we talking about the 2015 November Sale? There's time traveling going on all over this thread.

I'm so confused.

I do know Hard Not To Like and Take Charge Brandi are catalogued.

I think the original link posted was incorrect as now it leads to a whole different site!

I didn't even think to check the dates, I just started scrolling.

All I changed was the title of the thread. I had 2016 instead of 2015

Wow, the Jacksons sell Megahertz.

Sure, she hasn't exactly been a revelation as a broodmare but still ...

Very strange! The first time I clicked it it went to a site completely different from the page that came up when I clicked it the second time.

The original ownership group sold her after her two-year-old to Michael Bello, who campaigned her. He adored her so much he named a
wine after her (and if memory serves me)..even named his tasting room in her honor. One year after her retirement he promptly sold her to
the Jacksons for $2.1 million. So economics trumps sentimentality. One things for certain, at age 16 with a lackluster career
as a dam, she won't draw anything close to 2 million this time. Sadly, Calumet put Pike Place Dancer, the 1996 Kentucky Oaks winner
into the auction in foal to Oxbow. I hope she finds a good loving home.

Hopefully whoever buys Megahertz has some extraordinary insight into breeding mares and sends her to the one only (?) stallion who will produce stellar offspring from that mating. It would be so nice to see her vindicate herself as a broodie, and find a home that will provide eventual retirement for her.

I hope Dixiana buys her since they have her daughter Gigahertz.

I wondered what had happened to Norumbega and Donworth. Now I know--they're in the sale.

Donworth is in because the owner is dispersing.

Just saw hip 3575 sold without reserve for $1000. I didn't hear any bids, and the auctioneer ended it by saying"Take her out." What is the likely outcome for this mare?

Catalina · Wed Nov 11, 2015 3:20 pm

Also wondering. Per Pedigree Query: http://www.pedigreequery.com/ms+cabell+county There;s probably better info on the KEE sale website, but don't have the time just now to dig it out.

Izvestia · Wed Nov 11, 2015 4:12 pm

Hopefully not to be a broodmare.

She was consigned by Airdrie Stud. She was sired by a (former) Airdrie stallion. She comes from an Airdrie family and is in foal to a current Airdrie stallion. Most likely (unless someone stops by the barn and buys her) Airdrie will load her up and take her home where she will rejoin their broodmare band.
