I really like 392, a dark brown AP/Stopshoppingmaria filly. She seems very classy. $475,000.

MV Magnier bought the Gun Runner, Hip 391

Shadwell bought the Up (IRE) (Galileo) filly

Interesting enough both Unique Belle's and Unrivaled Belle's colts were RNA ($650k) ($675k)

That Gun Runner is so nice. Also happy to see love for the Up (IRE) filly! Not so surprising Shadwell bought her.

Both of them are owned by Mandy Pope, right? I guess she's probably going to look for partnerships to race both colts.

this one also has a case of neck/head belonging a whole different horse to the rest of the body, and his pasterns seem a bit long. foot also not the best. but looking at some of these top sellers, i think the $225,000 (RNA) is a bit too low, esp. given he's o/o a ½ to Beholder and Into Mischief. leads me to think didn't vet well.
i like plushies. a lot.

At this age it's likely still foal flaxen. It can take several years to grow out. He does sire a lot of low point bays

From today's session:

Hip 421 - c. Munnings x Amazing Littlelady - flashy!
Hip 426 - c. Constitution x American Model
Hip 434 - c. Not This Time x Applauding
Hip 435 - c. Street Sense x Artilena
Hip 440 - f. Volatile x Awesome Rafaela (BRZ) - I'm not sure if it's how the photo is cropped, but she looks like she has a lot of bone. Also she's half to New Year's Eve.
Hip 449 - f. Authentic x Bella Gatino - I'm too distracted by her flashy legs but is she over at the knee?
Hip 455 - c. Speightstown x Bengala (FR) - he looks so much like his sire.
Hip 458 - c. War Front x Black Dynamite - photographed in an awkward stage but he looks a lot like his sire, too.
Hip 476 - f. Medaglia d'Oro x Comedy (IRE)
Hip 481 - c. Quality Road x Conquering - his second dam is Take Charge Lady and he's good looking, I think.
Hip 487 - c. Into Mischief x Diamond Sparkles - I liked his dam while she was running but holy cow, his Into Mischief legs. Even I see this one.
Hip 506 - c. Into Mischief x Easy Living - an Into Mischief with better front legs.
Hip 507 - c. Speightstown x Eblouissante - me likey.
Hip 525 - f. Munnings x Farofa - another flashy Munnings.
Hip 615 - f. War Front x Marlinspike - second dam is the wonderful Surfside. Photographed during an awkward phase but I think she's pretty.
Hip 620 - f. Justify x Milam - I can't tell if she's leggy or looking like she's on tiptoe because her pasterns are too upright, but the rest of her is really nice.
Hip 646 - c. Curlin x Often (IRE)
Hip 653 - f. Authentic x Party Starter
Hip 661 - f. Not This Time x Pocket Gift
Hip 672 - f. Not This Time x Qaswara
Hip 691 - f. Justify x Rusty Slipper

I'm surprised it looks like Japan buyers only got a few horses unless they have agents buying them

Hip 487 is out - this is the Into Mischief that I thought had really crooked front legs.
