Winchell Wins Out On First Foal From ‘TDN Rising Star’ Guarana

The first foal out of 'TDN Rising Star' Guarana (Ghostzapper)–a colt by the ever-present Into Mischief–had interest from all corners of the Keeneland sales pavilion and was ultimately hammered down to Ron Winchell's Winchell Thoroughbreds for $1.4 million. Winner of the one-mile GI  Acorn S. and GI CCA Oaks going nine panels at three, Guarana picked up where she left off at four, winning the GI Madison S. over seven-eighths of a mile. Hill 'n' Dale consigned and ultimately purchased Guarana for $4.4 million with the Into Mischief colt in utero at Fasig-Tipton November in 2021. Hill 'n' Dale also consigned hip 145, who was bred in partnership with Matt Dorman.

Into Mischief Filly, Uncle Mo Colt Energize Opening Session at Keeneland

The opening session of the Keeneland September Sale picked up considerable steam at its midway stage when a filly by Into Mischief and a colt by Uncle Mo made seven-figure prices back-to-back. The Gainesway-consigned hip 92 is a daughter of Grade III winner Delightful Joy (Tapit), a $700,000 purchase by International Equities Holding at Keeneland January in 2017 and also the dam of Window Shopping (American Pharoah), winner of this year's GIII Summertime Oaks for Perry and Ramona Bass and Richard Mandella. Hip 92 was hammered down to Sheikha Hissa's Shadwell Racing for $2.3 million. Next in the ring was hip 94, an Uncle Mo colt out of Diva Delite (Repent) consigned by Hunter Valley Farm. The colt is not only a half-brother to champion and multi-millionairess Midnight Bisou (Midnight Lute), but also of the MGISP Verifying (Justify). That $775,000 KEESEP grad also won this year's GIII Indiana Derby. When the dust settled, the partnership of West Point Thoroughbreds, Woodford Thoroughbreds and Chuck Sonson were the successful bidders on hip 94 at $1.35 million. David Ingordo acted as agent.

Into Mischief Colt First To Seven Figures at Keeneland September

Robert Clay's Grandview Equine emerged victorious after a protracted bidding battle on the Gainesway-consigned hip 18, a colt by leading sire Into Mischief, who fetched $1.1 million in the early stages of Monday's opening session of the Keeneland September Yearling Sale in Lexington. The Mar. 31 foal is the second out of 2017 GI Test S. heroine American Gal (Concord Point), who was first purchased by Don Alberto Corp. for $2.2 million at Fasig-Tipton November in 2017 before selling to Mandy Pope's Whisper Hill Farm in foal to Tapit for $3 million at the same event 12 months later. This is also the family of GI/G1SWs Seventh Street and Reynaldothewizard. An Into Mischief filly out of American Gal's dam American Story (Ghostzapper) made $575,000 from Nice Guys Stable as the very next horse through the ring.
