MGSW Linda’s Gift to Be Offered at Fasig-Tipton November

[Wandering Eyes]

Multiple Graded Stakes winner Linda's Gift (Arrogate–Americana, by Tapit) has been retired from racing and will be offered through Taylor Made Sales Agency at the Fasig-Tipton November Sale on Nov. 4. Out of stakes-placed Americana, Linda's Gift was trained by Hall of Famer Richard Mandella. The 5-year-old mare won last year's GIII Red Carpet Stakes at Del Mar before returning this season to win the GIII Santa Ana Stakes at Santa Anita. The Calumet Farm-bred mare finished fifth, beaten less than three lengths in the May 27 GI Gamely Stakes.

“Linda's Gift represents something of a collector's item” said Taylor Made's Steve Castagnola. “He left us with just four crops to race and Linda's Gift is one of only four fillies or mares by Arrogate to win a Graded Stakes race in 2024. Arrogate has cemented his legacy and I can guarantee there will not be many other Graded Stakes winning daughters of his to be offered at public auction.”

Campaigned by John Cronin, Anthony DiMarco, Michael Mandara, Fred Nicotra and Vincent Varvaro, she retires with six wins from 16 starts and earnings of $400,936.
