A $500,000 Keeneland September yearling out of the 2020 Stonestreet Thoroughbreds consignment, CAWKAB (Curlin) was purchased by Shadwell Stables and makes a belated debut out of the Brad Cox barn. A 3-year-old son of Catch the Moon (Malibu Moon), Cawkab is a half-brother to four graded-stakes winners including the late GSW & MGISP Midnight Bourbon (Tiznow), GISW & up-and-coming freshman sire Girvin (Tale of Ekati), GSW Cocked and Loaded (Colonel John), and GSW Pirate's Punch (Shanghai Bobby). His 2-year-old half-brother, Weyhill Road (Quality Road), was himself a $1.6m Keeneland September yearling, nearly topping the sale, and recently debuted fourth in maiden special weight company at Keeneland.
