Expensive Omaha Beach Filly Tops Churchill Maiden

4th-CD, $120k, Msw, 2yo, f, 4 1/2, post time: 2:13 p.m. EDT
Charlotte Weber's Live Oak Plantation paid $750,000 for AND ONE MORE TIME (Omaha Beach) at last year's Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale, the priciest filly from her sire's second crop and second-dearest overall from 95 yearlings reported as sold last season. The pedigree has taken off all around it, as, subsequent to the purchase, the filly's half-sister Simply in Front (Summer Front) finished second in Woodbine's GI Natalma S., while Honor D Lady (Honor Code) scooped the GIII Remington Park Oaks before adding this year's GIII Royal Delta S. And One More Time is also kin to Churchtown (Air Force Blue), a stakes winner in 2022. Her third dam is Phipps Grade I luminary Educated Risk (Mr. Prospector). Wayne Lukas trained Super Saks ( Sky Mesa) to a victory in the Carousel Stakes and also conditions her debuting daughter, the $625,000 FTSAUG acquisition Buriana (Justify), for BC Stables. Give Her Another (Tiz the Law) was the sixth most expensive of her sire's 64 first-crop yearlings when hammering to Andrew Farm for $300,000 at Keeneland September last fall. The April foal is out of a winning daughter of two-time Grade I winner Ask The Moon (Malibu Moon), also the dam of MSW/MGSP Belgrano (War Front) and of the Grade III-placed Sundaysatthebeach (Medaglia d'Oro), who is responsible for recent GIII Penn Mile Stakes winner First World War (War Front). Three Chimneys homebred Reliable Source (Volatile) should take some beating and is also well-related, being a half-sister to MGSW Mucho Del Oro (Mucho Macho Man), SW &GISP Funtastic Again (Funtastic) and GSP Lady Glamour (Discreet Cat).
