Zedan Strikes Again for $3.2-Million Into Mischief Colt

Approximately two hours after Amr Zedan bought the sale-topping $4-million Curlin-Beholder colt at Tuesday night's session of the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale, he pulled out his pocketbook again for a $3.2-million Into Mischief colt out of the unplaced All American Dream (American Pharoah). It was the third seven-figure yearling of the evening for four-time leading sire Into Mischief. Bred in Kentucky by Jeff Drown and Don Rachel, the $3.2-million bay colt was consigned by Indian Creek. While the Feb. 12 colt is the first foal out of his dam, he is from the immediate family of SW and GSP Shidabhuti (Practical Joke) and his third dam is MGISW Dream Supreme (Seeking the Gold). He sold as hip 228 in the waning moments of Tuesday's sale with the ticket officially being signed for by Donato Lanni, agent for Zedan Racing.

Another Into Mischief Colt Joins Parade of Seven-Figure Yearlings at Fasig-Tipton Saratoga

The parade of seven-figure yearlings continued Tuesday night at the second session of the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale when a colt by Into Mischief out of GSP Virginia Key (Distorted Humor) fetched $1 million from the partnership of WinStar Farm, Siena Farm, and China Horse Club. Consigned by St George Sales, the colt is out of a half-sister to 2021 GI TVG Del Mar Debutante S. winner Grace Adler (Curlin), who brought $2 million at last year's Fasig-Tipton November sale, and from the same family as GI Whitney H. winner Bullsbay (Tiznow). Bred in Kentucky by Blue Heaven Farm, hip 208 was foaled Feb. 24 of last year. Four-time leading sire Into Mischief also had a $1.5-million colt earlier in the session out of 'TDN Rising Star' and GI Spinaway S. heroine Rachel's Valentina (Bernardini) when selling to Aron Wellman's Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners.

Fireworks as Beholder’s Colt by Curlin Hammers for $4 Million at Fasig-Tipton Saratoga

The explosive start to Tuesday night's second session of the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale continued when a colt by two Hall of Famers–Curlin and Beholder (Henny Hughes)–led all yearlings thus far when he sold for $4 million to Amr Zedan. Donato Lanni, agent for Zedan Racing, signed the ticket. The much-anticipated offering, recently featured in TDN, was bred in Kentucky by Spendthrift Farm and consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency. The Apr. 6-foaled chestnut is the first-ever sales offering out of his champion dam, who was represented by her first stakes winner May 6 when 3-year-old Teena Ella (War Front) won the GIII Senorita S. at Santa Anita. In addition to four championship titles of her own, Beholder is out a Broodmare of the Year in Leslie's Lady (Tricky Creek), who also produced Spendthrift's multiple leading sire Into Mischief, and Breeders' Cup winner/Coolmore sire Mendelssohn (Scat Daddy). The $4-million colt was Hip 165. Curlin was the only sire at Monday night's first session with two yearlings among the top 10 highest-priced offerings, including a $1.05-million filly, and, among his mountain of accomplishments, sired three individual Eclipse Award winners last year.
