Uncle Mo Colt Tops Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Opener At $1.1 Million

The Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale saw healthy returns during its opening session on Monday, including a seven-figure sale to the connections of last year's record-setting sale topper.

A colt by Uncle Mo topped the session when sold for $1.1 million to Donato Lanni, agent for Michael Lund Petersen. Offered as Hip 118 by Pike Racing, agent, the colt worked an eighth in :10-flat during last week's under tack show. Out of Miss Ocean City, the dark bay or brown colt is a half-brother to Grade 2 winner Azar from the immediate family of Grade 1 winning millionaire Twilight Agenda. The session-topper was bred in Virginia.

Last year, Petersen went to $1.8 million to secure a sale record-setting Into Mischief filly. Now named Gamine, that filly is undefeated in three starts, and won last weekend's Grade 1 Acorn Stakes at Belmont Park in stakes-record time.

While the top colt was sired by a record-breaking champion freshman sire in Uncle Mo, the session's next-highest price went to a son of current first-crop sire Not This Time.

Lauren Carlisle, agent went to $650,000 to secure Hip 213, a colt by the speedy G3 Iroquois Stakes winner and first foal out of the winning Indian Charlie mare Sanctissima. The chestnut colt was consigned by Classic Bloodstock LLC, agent, and worked an eighth in :10 1/5 seconds during the under tack show. Hip 213 was bred in Maryland.

Carlisle also purchased the session's top filly, a daughter of 2019 leading sire into Mischief, for $500,000 earlier in the day. Consigned as Hip 4 by Hoby and Layna Kight, agent, the bay filly is out of the graded stakes placed Dixie Chatter mare Global Hottie, from the immediate family of Horse of the Year Alysheba. The Kentucky-bred filly worked a quarter in :21 3/5 seconds during the under tack show.

Overall, 152 horses sold for $12,632,500, good for an average of $83,109 and a median of $40,000. The RNA rate was 20 percent.

The Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale continues tomorrow at 11 a.m. Eastern. Session 1 results are available online.

PR Special Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Sale: Boyd Browning On The Changing Auction Calendar

CLICK HERE TO READ THIS EDITION OF THE PR SPECIAL

Whether you're on the sales grounds or following along from home or the farm, the Paulick Report has reading material for the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-Year-Olds In Training Sale with a jam-packed online-exclusive edition of the PR Special.

In this issue, Fasig-Tipton president Boyd Browning chats with bloodstock editor Joe Nevills about navigating a hectic spring of cancelling and rescheduling sales through the COVID-19 pandemic, how that affected the upcoming Midlantic sale, and how it guides his expectations for the remainder of the juvenile auction season and beyond in 2020.

The Stallion Spotlight focuses on champion Will Take Charge, with Tom Hamm of Three Chimneys discussing what crosses work best with the young sire, and what sets him apart in a talented class vying to be the last great son of Unbridled's Song at stud.

In Ask Your Veterinarian, Dr. Brad Tanner of Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital tackles the subject of “parrot mouth” in horses, and the ways to correct and manage it.

Nevills takes a walk around the barns to ask industry members about their favorite races they've seen in person in the latest edition of INQUIRY, and then he speaks to bloodstock agent Chad Schumer about how getting stuck with future Breeders' Cup runner Worldly taught him that everything happens for a reason in Lesson Horses. We then dive through the catalog to see who is on offer from the rookie class at the Midlantic sale in First-Crop Sire Watch.

As a small token of our gratitude, we'll be offering one PR Special reader a free Paulick Report baseball cap. Information to sign up for the drawing can be found in the issue.

Thanks to our sponsors for making this issue of the PR Special possible:
