Lifetime Breeding Right to Girvin Offered at Fasig-Tipton July

Fasig-Tipton has added seven supplemental entries to Monday's July Selected Horses of All Ages sale including a lifetime breeding right to young stallion Girvin (Tale of Ekati-Catch the Moon, by Malibu Moon) as HIP 611. The freshman sire is off to a quick start at stud with his first crop of two-year-olds in 2022, siring five winners from eight runners to date. These include the undefeated Devious Dame, who captured the Astoria S. at Belmont on June 9 in a 5 1/4-length romp. Girvin sired two more maiden special weight winners this past weekend include Damon's Mound, who was named a 'TDN Rising Star' following his 12 1/2-length debut win at Churchill Downs July 2. A debut winner himself as a 2-year-old, Girvin won the GI Haskell, GII Risen Star S., and the GII Louisiana Derby at three on his way to career earnings of more than $1.6 million. He is a half-brother to graded stakes winners Midnight Bourbon (Tiznow), Cocked and Loaded (Colonel John), and Pirate's Punch (Shanghai Bobby).  His immediate family includes Grade I winners Silver Max (Badge of Silver) and Yes It's True (Is It True).

“The lifetime breeding right to Girvin is an exciting, unique addition to this year's sale,” said Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning. “It offers breeders an opportunity to get in on the ground floor with a stallion with unlimited potential.”

Girvin Colt Wins For Fun in ‘Rising Star’ Debut

DAMON'S MOUND (c, 2, Girvin–San Antonio Stroll, by Stroll) made his 4-1 odds look like quite a gift in this unveiling, rolling home to a daylight victory and 'TDN Rising Star' honors Saturday at Churchill Downs. Stalking two-wide in mid-pack through a :21.85 opening quarter, the Florida-bred coasted up to take control entering the turn and blasted clear to win by a dozen lengths. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.
