Yaupon Colt Leads Day 1 Of OBS October Yearling Sale

Hip 78 tops Day 1 of OBS October | Judit Seipert

Yaupon continued a strong run for his first crop of yearlings in the sales ring Monday when hip 78 topped the schedule-adjusted Day 1 of the Ocala Breeders' Sale October Yearling Sale. Consigned by Colin Brennan Bloodstock, Agent IX and purchased for $75,000 by Pick View LLC, the Florida-bred colt is a half to a two-time winner in Candy Caramel (Candy Ride {Arg}) and out of a half-sister to MGSW Conveyance (Indian Charlie). Dam Bride Street is also a half to Cashing Tickets (Indian Charlie) who produced GSW Leggs Galore (Bayern) and SP $800,000 yearling Victorious (Into Mischief).

The top-priced filly came late in the session when hip 180, a filly by Vekoma consigned by Abbie Road Farm (Lisa McGreevy), Agent XXVI, sold for $72,000 to Tom McCrocklin, agent. From her sire's second crop, the filly is out of a half to MGSW No Dozing (Union Rags).

Ocala Stud's Win Win Win, already the sire of 'TDN Rising Star' and $1.8m OBS March topper Nooni, had two progeny sell in the top five prices: a filly (hip 85) for $70,000 and a colt named Keep Praying (hip 11) for $50,000.

96 yearlings sold for $1,658,700 Monday with an average of $17,278 and a median price of $10,000.
