Grade 1 Winners Guarana, Carina Mia Among ‘Special’ Joint Offerings At Fasig-Tipton November Sale

Three Chimneys Farm and Hill 'n' Dale Sales Agency announced Thursday a joint offering to dissolve a partnership comprised of a truly elite group of mares and foals selling at The November Sale at Fasig-Tipton.

The offering includes 3 time Grade 1 Winner Guarana in foal to Into Mischief. The daughter of Horse of the Year Ghostzapper burst onto the scene with a 14 3/4 length romp at first asking. She captured the Grade 1 Acorn in stakes record time, in only her second start, drawing off by 6, defeating Kentucky Oaks winner Serengetti Empress. She landed the second of three legs of the New York Filly Triple Tiara in the CCA Oaks in her next start. The third Grade 1 win for the Three Chimneys homebred came in the Madison at Keeneland over Mia Mischief. A model of consistency, she compiled a record of five wins and a second from six starts.

Guarana's dam, Magical World who sells as hip 203, is also the dam of Stakes Winner and Graded Stakes placed Magic Dance, as well as recent winner Beatbox, who sold as a yearling for $2 Million. Magical World sells in foal to Into Mischief as well.

Another Three Chimneys raced Grade 1 Acorn winner is Carina Mia, the millionaire daughter of Malibu Moon set a track record in her maiden win, romping by 9 3/4 lengths. She sells in foal to Uncle Mo.

A true highlight of the offering is Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies winner and Eclipse Champion 2-year-old filly Take Charge Brandi, who sells in foal to Uncle Mo as well. The daughter of Giant's Causeway, a half sister to Omaha Beach, is out of a daughter of Broodmare of the Year Take Charge Lady.

“This is a unique group of mares,” said John G. Sikura, President of Hill 'n' Dale Farms. “All are either champions, Grade 1 winners or Grade 1 producers in foal to leading sires Into Mischief and Uncle Mo. Deep foundational pedigrees, brilliance on the racetrack and siblings by sires such as Curlin, Gun Runner and Quality Road which we retained bolster these outstanding pages.

“With these retained sons and daughters, we felt the time was now to enter a vibrant marketplace with a unique group with stellar resumés. The marketplace craves special and these mares are very special.”

“Three Chimneys is a strong believer in partnerships. John and I are both buyers and sellers in the market and we both have collectively retained significant members of the families so in light of the extraordinary strength of the current market we agreed to offer this group at Fasig-Tipton,” said Gonçalo Torrealba, owner of Three Chimneys.

Galilean, Son Of Uncle Mo, Retires To New York’s Hidden Lake Farm

Galilean, a multiple stakes-winning and graded stakes-placed son of perennial leading sire Uncle Mo from the female family of the influential Smart Strike, has been retired from racing and will take up his new career as a stallion at Hidden Lake Farm in New York where he will stand the 2022 breeding season for a stud fee of $7,000 S&N.

“We are proud of what Galilean accomplished on the racetrack,” said West Point Thoroughbreds' Terry Finley, “and we're excited for him to write his next chapter as a stallion. He was precocious, fast, and he proved his class repeatedly in top company. We believe he has the looks, the pedigree, and the type of dangerous miler speed to make his mark as a stallion. We are committed to supporting Galilean with some of our top mares, and we're excited to offer him to New York breeders.”

The handsome bay colt kicked off his racing career in auspicious fashion, competing exclusively in stakes as a juvenile. Galilean won the $100,000 Barretts Juvenile Stakes at Los Alamitos on debut for trainer Jerry Hollendorfer. In a determined effort, Galilean proved a game winner in his bow, getting 6 ½ furlongs in a lively 1:15.28 with an interior six-furlong clocking of 1:08.75.

He closed out his freshman campaign with a tremendous performance in the $100,000 King Glorious Stakes, also at Los Alamitos, leading the one-mile test from start to finish. He sprinted to the lead, set the pace down the backstretch, and repelled a bid from his nearest pursuer on the far turn before powering away from his rivals in the stretch to win by nine lengths in 1:35.06 as the odds-on favorite.

Galilean commenced his 3-year-old season with a 4 ½-length victory in the $200,000 California Cup Derby at Santa Anita. After pressing the pace three-wide into the stretch of the 1 1/16-mile event, Galilean drew off under a hand ride from Flavien Prat to win as much the best. The win earned him a trip to Hot Springs, Ark., for the Rebel Stakes (G2) at Oaklawn Park where he finished a close third behind winner Long Range Toddy and runner-up and subsequent multiple Grade 1 winner Improbable.

In 2020, Galilean added three additional stakes scores to his already impressive resume, taking the Soi Phet Stakes at Los Alamitos by four lengths under the tutelage of trainer John Sadler, the California Dreamin' Stakes at Del Mar, and the California Flag Handicap at Santa Anita. He made the final start of his career on Sept. 12 at Los Alamitos, finishing fourth in the E.B. Johnston Stakes. He retires with a record of 16-6-1-3 and boasts a career bankroll of $592,522.

Bred in California by Bar C Racing Stables, Galilean is produced from the El Prado (IRE) mare Fresia, a half-sister to Ontario Derby (G3) and Seagram Cup Stakes (G3) winner His Race to Win, an earner of $509,349. Galilean hails from the prolific Sam-Son female family of Canadian champion Classy 'N Smart, a half-sister to Sky Classic and the dam of Smart Strike, Dance Smartly and others, and the granddam of Dancethruthedawn and promising young sire Speightster.
