(twice), Just A Game S. and Diana S. over the past three seasons for Chad Brown. An 11-time winner in 15 career starts, she was a close runner-up in Saturday’s GI Maker’s Mark Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf and has banked over $2.8 million.

Monomoy Girl Lights Up ‘Night of the Stars’, Sells to Spendthrift for $9.5 Million

Seven hips after her onetime rival Midnight Bisou (Midnight Lute) brought the hammer down for $5 million, champion and Saturday’s dazzling GI Longines Breeders’ Cup Distaff heroine Monomoy Girl (Tapizar–Drumette, by Henny Hughes) set a clear new highwater mark at the ‘Night of the Stars’ when selling to Spendthrift Farm for a jaw-dropping $9.5 million Sunday at Fasig-Tipton November. Spendthrift also brought home Got Stormy (Get Stormy) for $2.75 million earlier in the sale. Sold as hip 192 by ELiTE Sales, Monomoy Girl is one of the most popular mares of the past decade due to her remarkable consistency and success at the highest level. Beaten just twice–once via disqualification and once by a neck–in 14 career starts, the chestnut crossed the wire first in all several starts as a sophomore, winning the GI Kentucky Oaks, GI Breeders’ Cup Distaff, GI Acorn S., GI Coaching Club American Oaks and GI Central Bank Ashland S. en route to a 3-year-old filly championship. Forced to miss her entire 2019 campaign with several physical issues, she returned to the races this year no worse for wear, going a perfect four-for-four and locking up another divisional championship in Saturday’s Distaff at Keeneland.

Superstar and champion Midnight Bisou (Midnight Lute–Diva Delite, by Repent) was a predictably popular item at the Fasig-Tipton November ‘Night of the Stars’ Sunday, but in the end she’ll go to a familiar face, as Chuck Allen, partner on the mare during her racing career, bought out the other partners and brought the hammer down at $5 million. The 5-year-old sold as hip 185, consigned by ELiTE Sales. A five-time graded stakes winner and dual Grade I winner as a sophomore, the $80,000 OBS April buy earned a runaway divisional championship at four with a remarkable seven graded stakes tallies and four top-level successes. She added the GII Fleur de Lis S. and was runner-up in the $20-million Saudi Cup this term before being retired while prepping for the Breeders’ Cup. She had 13 wins, all in graded stakes, from 22 outings, never finished out of the money and is the highest-earning U.S. dirt mare in history with $7,516,520 in the bank.
