SEISMIC BEAUTY (f, 3, Uncle Mo–Knarsdale {SP, $103,692}, by Medaglia d'Oro), a $400,000 FTKNOV weanling turned $550,000 KEESEP yearling, led into the final furlong of her Aug. 3 unveiling, but was beaten on the wire by One Magic Philly (Good Magic) while earning a 79 Beyer Speed Figure. Accordingly sent away as the 1-5 jolly and carrying the Peter Leidel colors, Seismic Beauty jumped beautifully and alternated outside a rival through an opening quarter in :21.99. Firmly in front as they hit the turn, the Maryland-bred lengthened her stride when asked after a half in an effortless :44.74 and galloped away from her rivals to graduate by daylight. Matt Dorman's Determined Stud acquired Knarsdale for $430,000 with this filly in utero at the 2020 Keeneland November Sale, and the mare's current 2-year-old, Cincazul (Bernardini), was one of four horses to make $500,000 last year's Fasig-Tipton Kentucky October Sale. Her yearling daughter of Essential Quality, already named My Steel Magnolia, was hammered down to LCI for $225,000 the Fasig-Tipton July Sale and she produced a full-sister to Seismic Beauty this season before being bred to Charlatan. Sales history: $400,000 Wlg '21 FTKNOV; $550,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 2-1-1-0, $60,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.
