Keeneland has supplemented nine horses–including Diva Delite (Repent), dam of champion and $13.9 million earner Midnight Bisou, and Expo Gold (Johannesburg), dam of champion and $2-million earner Swiss Skydiver–to Book 1 of the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale on Tuesday, Nov. 5.
Both Diva Delite and Expo Gold are in foal to Uncle Mo, and both are consigned by Hunter Valley Farm, agent.
Grade III winner Diva Delite is also the dam of Grade III winner Verifying (Justify) and stakes winner Stage Left (Congrats). She is out of stakes-placed winner Tour Hostess, by Tour d'Or. Purchased for $80,000 by Jeff Bloom at the OBS Spring Sale in 2017, the 2019 champion older dirt mare later realized $5-million at the Fasig-Tipton Fall Mixed Sale in 2020 before re-selling for $5.5 million at Keeneland November in 2022. Diva Delite, who brought $750,000 at Fasig Tipton in 2018, returned the next year to that venue to bring $1.2 million while in foal to Justify.
Expo Gold, also the dam of stakes-placed Miss Hot Legs (Verrazano), is a winning daughter of the Grade III-placed mare Clouds of Gold, by Strike the Gold. Swiss Skydiver, the 2020 champion sophomore filly, was a $35,000 KEESP yearling purchase by Ken McPeek before bringing $4.7 million at the Fasig-Tipton in the fall of 2021. Expo Gold most recently sold for $950,000 while in foal to Catholic Boy at the Keeneland November Sale in 2020.
