Nyquist Colt Tops Final Session Of Record-Setting Fasig-Tipton October Sale

The Fasig-Tipton Kentucky October Yearlings sale concluded Thursday evening in Lexington, Ky., with final numbers which crushed historical benchmarks in gross, average, and median.

A colt by last year's leading first-crop sire Nyquist topped the final session when sold for $500,000 to St. Elias Stables from the consignment of St George Sales, agent (video).

Offered as Hip 1281, the dark bay or brown colt is the second foal out of Froyo Star, a winning Rockport Harbor half-sister to multiple Grade 1 winner Sweet Reason; graded stakes winner Don't Forget Gil; stakes winner Battle Girl; and the dam of this year's Group 1 Dubai Golden Shaheen winner Zenden. The session topper was bred in Kentucky by Southern Equine Stable, and was a $270,000 selected weanling at last year's November Sale.

“Day four was another outstanding day for the October sale,” said Fasig-Tipton president Boyd Browning. “It was kind of a fitting conclusion to an exceptional horse sale. The numbers have been tremendous all four days, across the board.”

The session's top filly came in the form of a daughter of current leading first-crop sire Gun Runner, sold for $335,000 to Donato Lanni, agent for Glen Hill Farm. The bay filly was offered as Hip 1584 by Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent. The filly is the first foal out the stakes placed Malibu Moon mare Lunar Gaze, from the immediate family of multiple Grade 1 winner Ello Luv. Hip 1584 was bred in Kentucky by Waymore LLC.

“(There was) tremendous depth overall in the bidding activities,” continued Browning. “A very diverse group of buyers stayed 'til the bitter end. We saw two or three very high priced horses sold in the last 20 to 30 minutes of the sale. We really could not be any more pleased that (the sale) exceeded our most optimistic expectations.”

Rounding out the top five prices of the final session were:

  • Hip 1580, a colt by Street Sense out of Lucky Cover (Medaglia d'Oro), which sold for $290,000 to Cash Is King from the consignment of Burleson Farms, agent. The bay colt is the first foal out of a daughter of multiple Grade 2 winner Teammate, from the immediate family of War Front. Hip 1580 was bred in Kentucky by Nice Guys Stable.
  • Hip 1201, a filly by Speightstown out of Elusive Wave (Mizzen Mast), which sold for $240,000 to Maverick Racing and Siena Farm from the consignment of Four Star Sales, agent. The gray or roan filly is out of a full sister to two-time Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint winner Mizdirection). Hip 1201 was bred in Kentucky.
  • Hip 1338, a filly by Ghostzapper out of Handwoven (Indian Charlie), which sold for $240,000 to Jump Around Stables from the consignment of Baccari Bloodstock, agent. The dark bay or brown filly hails from the immediate family of millionaire and multiple graded stakes winner Scott's Scoundrel. Hip 1338 was bred in Kentucky by Vision Racing and Sales.

“In recent years, the trajectory of the sale has continued to improve,” added Browning. “The consignors are bringing us better horses (every year), and the buyers are supporting them.”

During Thursday's session, 297 yearlings sold for $13,095,900, good for an average of $44,094 and a median of $25,000. Thirty-four horses sold for $100,000 or more.

Over the course of the four days, 1153 horses sold for $52,607,500, surpassing by 37.5 percent the previous sale record gross of $38,258,900 set in 2019. The average was $45,627, a 20.2 percent increase over the established benchmark of $37,955 (also set in 2019). The median rose to $22,000, a new sale record 18.9 percent higher than the previous record median of $18,500 set in 2014. The RNA rate was 17.8 percent, the lowest at the Kentucky October Yearlings Sale since 2013.

The sale topper (Hip 1107), a colt by Street Sense sold for $925,000 during Wednesday's session, tied the sale record originally set in 1999, while establishing a new record price for a colt at this sale. In addition, a pair of colts sold for $750,000 – a colt by Empire Maker (Hip 513) on Tuesday and a colt by Gun Runner (Hip 870) on Wednesday – to match the previous record price for a colt at Kentucky October Yearlings, which was established in 2000.

Empire Maker Colt Ties Sale Record During Second Session Of Fasig-Tipton Kentucky October Yearlings Sale

The Fasig-Tipton Kentucky October Yearlings sale continued Tuesday in Lexington, Ky., with a vibrant session buoyed the sale's record-breaking pace.

A colt by the late Empire Maker topped the session when sold for $750,000 to St. Elias Stables from the consignment of Machmer Hall Sales, agent (video).

The colt's price tag matched that of the most expensive colt – and third most expensive yearling – in the sale's history. Offered as Hip 513, the dark bay or brown colt is out of the Street Cry (IRE) mare Stop Time (GB), a daughter of G1 French One Thousand Guineas winner Musical Chimes. The immediate family includes five-time Grade 1 winning millionaire Music Note, dam of this year's Dubai World Cup victor Mystic Guide. Hip 513 was bred in Kentucky by the late Tom Conway and Calvin Crain.

“It was a great session, record-breaking in all regards,” said Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning. “More important than that was… the continued level of activity. (It was an) energetic crowd. It's a pretty fun time to be selling horses right now.”

The session's top filly came in the form of an Ontario-bred daughter of Uncle Mo which sold for $450,000 to West Bloodstock, agent for Repole and St. Elias (video).

Breeder Sam-Son Farm consigned the filly as Hip 469. She is a half-sibling to five winners out of the winning Seeking the Gold mare Song of the Lark, including Canadian Horse of the Year Up and champion colt With the Birds (Stormy Atlantic), who won Belmont's G1 Jamaica Handicap and earned $1,379,841. The filly's second dam is Canadian champion Wilderness song, also a millionaire and Grade 1 winner in the U.S.

Rounding out the top five prices of the session were:

  • Hip 545, a colt from the first crop of Breeders' Cup champion Mendelssohn out of Super Girlie (Closing Argument), which sold for $400,000 to BlackRidge Stables from the consignment of Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent. The bay colt is a half-brother to five winners from as many to race, including this year's G1 Arkansas Derby winner Super Stock (Dialed In) and Grade 1 placed Boujie Girl (Flashback). Hip 545 was bred in Kentucky by Pedro Gonzalez and P. J. Gonzalez.
  • Hip 705, a filly from the first crop of multiple Grade 1 winning juvenile Bolt d'Oro out of Urloveisasymphony (Forest Wildcat), which sold for $375,000 to St. Elias Stables from the consignment of Wynnstay Sales, agent. The bay filly is out of a half-sister to the dam of this year's G2 Mac Diarmida Stakes winner Phantom Currency, from the immediate family of champion 2-year-old colt Bayford and Group 1 winner Northern Baby. Hip 705 was bred in Kentucky by Deann Baer and Greg Baer DVM.
  • Hip 554, a filly from the first crop of Triple Crown champion Justify out of Susie's Baby (Giant's Causeway), which sold for $325,000 to On the Rocks Racing from the consignment of Eaton Sales, agent. The gray or roan filly is a half-sister to stakes winner Family Way, who is also a multiple winner in France, out of a half-sister to Group 1 winner Caravaggio, who is currently leading first-crop sires in North America by winners. Hip 554 was bred in Kentucky by Diamond Creek Farm.

“I sound like a broken record after every good session or every good sale,” added Browning. “It's because people give us better horses that it goes so well. We're in a market that's strong, but it's strong because men and women are trusting us, bringing better quality horses to the sale both in terms of pedigree and in terms of conformation. It's a combination of factors that's leading to these results and we're thankful and we're going to do our best to continue this momentum for the next two days.”

Tuesday's sales once again set a record single-session gross, with proceeds of $13,960,200 eclipsing the previous record of $11,016,900 yesterday during the sale's vibrant opening session. During the second session, 280 horses sold for an average of $49,858 and median of $25,000. Fifty-two yearlings sold for $100,000.

Over the course of the first two days of selling, 554 yearlings changed hands for a total of $24,977,100, up 52.4 percent from $16,390,500 paid for 489 yearlings during last year's first half. The two-session average was $45,085, up 34.5 percent over $33,518 for the same period last year. The first-half median rose 33.3 percent to $20,000 from $15,000 in 2020. The RNA rate through the first two sessions was 18.4 percent.
