Probably an RNA.

Mt. Brilliant got Star Billing.

Looks like Summer Soiree is an RNA. DRF reporting the ticket didn't come out.

Yeah. Team Valor just tweeted that she didn't meet her reserve, so they'll keep her.

Upperline to Town and Country Farm. Happy she stays here! Cannot wait for her War Front foal.

She did.

Waiting to see who got her.

Unfold the Rose, dam of Stephanie's Kitten and carrying a full sibling to that one, went for $325,000. My guess is that she is an RNA. One would think that mare is worth more and the Ramseys know it.

Upperline was bought by Town and Country Farm

Bless the handlers in the ring, you have some really unhappy mares , they do their job very well. I would assume that some of them calm down once out of the ring?

Boy, Zoftig is definitely a Cozzene. Very stout looking.

Hammered at 1.1M

serenassong · Wed Nov 06, 2013 1:34 pm

Zoftig, carrying a full to Zo Impressive, goes for 1.1 Mil. What a beautiful mare she is, I love Cozzenes anyway.

mariasmon · Wed Nov 06, 2013 1:36 pm

Glad Zoftig sold well, even though, at 15, she is at a less desirable stage of her breeding career.

The Ramseys don't own Unfold the Rose. They are selling her for whoever does.

mariasmon · Wed Nov 06, 2013 1:37 pm

I'd think Arena Elvira, coming up at #285, would sell pretty well. Nice race record, nice pedigree, reasonably attractive looking.

Agreed - glad to see Zoftig break a million. She's so lovely. Went to Stephen Hillen - looks like he's a British or Irish bloodstock agent?

Oh, good to know! She's a daughter of Bail Out Becky, who is/was owned by the Ramseys. Plus, she's by Catienus and has a regular date with Kitten's Joy... I just assumed.

Either way, I thought she was deserving of bringing more... and thankfully, her owner agreed. She's an RNA.

Arena Elvira hammered at $1.5M.

mariasmon · Wed Nov 06, 2013 1:53 pm

I wonder if the owner will continue to board Unfold the Rose at Ramsey Farm. I suppose she could still get sold privately, too. The Ramseys did own her, but sold her at KeeJan11, for $11K

What a steal she turned out to be! I loved Bail Out Becky when she was racing.

$310k for Athena's Gift, dam of We Miss Artie.

I was thinking the same with hip #289...quite the kicker she was. Not a happy girl to be in that small ring. Who are the handlers? My fave is the guy who had Ebby...for no real reason lol! Are they Keeneland staff? I would imagine they have horse experience? Pretty neat to think of the amazing horses they've touched as they have passed through the ring over the years.

Awesomundo has her tongue hanging out of the side, funny to see that

That's Cordell Anderson. He's awesome. He can stand a horse for a photo in about 15 seconds. No idea how he does it. He also works at the Taylor Made consignments. He actually had A.P. Indy in the ring as a yearling, among others (including Royal Delta, as well).
