SCATTER SEED (JPN) (f, 2, Uncle Mo–Scatladybdancing, by Scat Daddy) is out of a stakes-placed full-sister to SW Ultima D that was purchased for $390K with this foal in utero at the 2017 Keeneland November Sale. The February foal’s third dam includes GSW Cat’s Career (Mr. Prospector) as well as Cat’s Eye Witness (Elusive Quality), the dam of Scat Daddy’s outstanding young sire son No Nay Never, who was second to the fast-finishing Bobby’s Kitten (Kitten’s Joy) in the 2014 GII Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint at Santa Anita.

The daughter of the pensioned GI Alabama S. winner Careless Jewel is one of five fillies in the field of 18. B-Summer Wind Equine LLC (KY)
