The highly-anticipated half-brother to top handicap division runner Flightline will be scratched from the upcoming Keeneland September Yearling Sale and retained by breeder Jane Lyon of Summer Wind Farm, BloodHorse reports.
The Curlin colt, named Eagles Flight, was cataloged as Hip 243 in the select Book 1 of the September Sale, scheduled to go through the ring during the auction's second day. He was to be consigned by Lane's End, agent.
Eagles Flight will remain at Summer Wind Farm in Georgetown, Ky., until late December or early January, when he will be sent to Eddie Woods Stables in Ocala, Fla., to begin his formal race training.
Both Flightline and Eagles Flight are out of the Indian Charlie mare Feathered.
Flightline, by Tapit, sold for $1 million at the 2019 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale to West Point Thoroughbreds, who later took on partners Hronis Racing, Siena Farm, Woodford Racing, and Summer Wind staying in for a percentage.
