A winning 4-year-old filly by Unbridled's Song led returns bringing $102,000 from the Army Mule Partnership during Wednesday's Book 6 session of the Keeneland November Sale.
During this 10th session of the 12-day sale, 237 horses grossed $2,903,800 for an average of $12,252 and a median of $7,000. There are no comparable figures from 2017. Cumulatively, 2,286 horses have sold for $187,191,400 for an average of $81,886 and a median of $32,000.
Out of a daughter of millionaire Lady Tak (Mutakddim), the session-topping Stormy's Song earned her 'TDN Rising Star' Badge in a blowout win on debut at Belmont Park last June. Hip 3877 was consigned by Hidden Brook, Agent XXX, as a racing or broodmare prospect.
“We're real familiar with the whole family; we bred Stormy Tak [in a partnership],” Hill 'n' Dale Farm General Manager Jared Burdine said representing the ownership group. “She's going to go to [new Hill 'n' Dale stallion] Army Mule for a partnership there. We're excited about him as a stallion.”
A filly from the first crop of Tourist was the day's highest- priced weanling, selling for $50,000 to Stafford Pond Farm. Consigned by Endeavor Farm, agent, as Hip 3567, the filly is out of the stakes-placed Skip Away mare Blondz Away and is a half-sister to stakes winner Colonel Samsen and stakes-placed Summer Share.
Lane's End's Farm ranked as the session's leading consignor, selling 33 horses for $585,600.
The November Sale continues through Friday with all sessions beginning at 10 a.m. ET.
