Dual Breeders’ Cup Winner Goodnight Olive Sells to John Stewart for $6M

Champion Goodnight Olive (Ghostzapper–Salty Strike, by Smart Strike), who on Saturday captured her second GI Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint, sold for $6 million Tuesday night at the Fasig-Tipton November sale to John Stewart. The amount matched the price Mike Repole spent on three-time Grade I winner Nest (Curlin) earlier in the evening.

Consigned by Elite, agent as hip 237, Goodnight Olive went through the ring as a racing or broodmare prospect. She had first stepped into the same Fasig-Tipton ring in 2019 as an October yearling, where she was picked up by First Row Partners, Liz Crow agent for $170,000. The dark bay or brown mare, now a 5-year-old, raced for First Row Partners and Team Hanley. Trained by Chad Brown, the Stonestreet Thoroughbred Holdings-bred is nine for 12 lifetime. In addition to her back-to-back Breeders' Cup victories, she also captured the GI Madison S. and GI Ballerina H. She was honored with the Eclipse Award for champion female sprinter in 2022 and has earned just shy of $2.2 million.

Gavin O'Connor signed for Goodnight Olive on behalf of John Stewart. The two also paired earlier in the sale on a duo of $3-million mares in Breeders' Cup winner Pizza Bianca (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) and champion Forte's dam Queen Caroline (Blame).

Sauterne, Search Results, Secret Oath: Three Consecutive Mares Bring $3M or More at Fasig-Tipton

In what was surely one of the most thrilling few moments of Fasig-Tipton's history, three consecutive mares through the November Sale ring fetched $3 million or more Tuesday evening. Hips 178-180–Sauterne (Fr) (Kingman {GB})–Salicorne, by Aragorn {Ire}), Search Results (Flatter–Co Cola, by Candy Ride {Arg}), and Secret Oath (Arrogate–Absinthe Minded, by Quiet American)–combined for a gross of $10.8 million in approximately five minutes.

Sauterne, winner this year of the G1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp in France and consigned by Nicky Drion Thoroughbreds, agent, was the first of the trio to go through the ring and fetched a cool $4.2 million from Emmanuel de Seroux's Narvick International on behalf of Japan's Grand Farm. The sophomore filly is out of an unraced half-sister to dual American and French champion Stacelita (Fr) (Monsun). Sauterne sold as a racing or broodmare prospect. Jean Pierre Dubois bred her in France.

Search Results, winner of the GI Acorn S. in 2021 and most recently sixth in Saturday's GI Longines Breeders' Cup Distaff, also sold as a racing or broodmare prospect. Bred by Machmer Hall in Kentucky and consigned by Elite, agent, she is from the same family as GISW Mind Your Biscuits (Posse) and Canadian champion Kimchi (Langfuhr). Search Results went to Katsumi Yoshida for $3.6 million.

Secret Oath, winner of the 2022 GI Kentucky Oaks, fetched $3 million from Spendthrift Farm LLC. Bred in Kentucky by Briland Farm, Robert Mitchell, and Stacy Mitchell, the chestnut was consigned by Bluewater Sales LLC, agent VI and sold specifically as a broodmare prospect. Her final appearance on the racetrack was a second behind Saturday's GI Breeders' Cup Distaff winner Idiomatic (Curlin) in the Aug. 25 GI Personal Ensign S.
