  • Journalists

A smattering of horses on offer at next week’s JRHA Select Yearling and Foal Sale were purchased in utero at the Keeneland November Sale in late 2016 and 2017, respectively, including a first-crop son of Triple Crown winner American Pharoah and the offspring of some very talented gallopers to grace U.S. racetracks over the last decade or so. To follow are brief pedigree notes on each of those horses.

Hip 72, ylg, c, American Pharoah–Crisp, by Quiet American
Consigned by Northern Farm
$350,000 in utero ’16 KEENOV – Consigned by Adena Springs

Crisp defeated future champion Blind Luck (Pollard’s Vision) into third in a sit-sprint renewal of the GI Santa Anita Oaks (see below) and foaled this first-crop son of the 2015 American Triple Crown winner last May 5. The further female family includes GISW Whywhywhy (Mr. Greeley) and MGSW Spellbinder (Tale of the Cat). Crisp was most recently covered by Deep Impact (Jpn).

Hip 111, ylg, f, War Front–Circling (Ire), by Galileo (Ire)
Consigned by Mishima Farm
$800,000 ’16 KEENOV – Consigned by Hill ‘n’ Dale Sales
(walking video)
Circling, a daughter of SW Chanting (Danehill) and therefore bred on the same cross as Frankel (GB), was Group 3-placed in Ireland and a stakes winner in the US. Third dam Golden Reef (Mr. Prospector) won the GII Schuylerville S. and was twice Grade I-placed in 1989 for Buckland Farm. The War Front cross over Galileo is responsible for G1SWs Roly Poly and U S Navy Flag. Circling produced a Deep Impact (Jpn) this past Mar. 11 that is cataloged as lot 340 in the foal section of the sale.

Hip 152, ylg, c, Liam’s Map–Toutsie Rules, by Roman Ruler
Consigned by Orion Farm Co Ltd
$135,000 ’16 KEENOV – Consigned by Timber Town
(walking video)
Third in the 2015 GIII Charles Town Oaks for a partnership including Marette Farrell, Hilary Pridham, Angela Ellis and Haynes Stable LLC, Toutsie Rules was part of the first book of mares sent to this Lane’s End stallion, winner of the 2015 GI Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile. The colt’s third dam is MGISW Tout Charmant (Slewvescent), who was responsible for GSW & GISP Dancing House (Tapit). Toutsie Rules was bred to Horse of the Year Maurice (Jpn) (Screen Hero {Jpn}) in 2017, but did not produce a foal.

Consigned by Hidaka Taiyo Farm
$350,000 ’17 KEENOV – Consigned by Hill ‘n’ Dale Sales
(walking video)
Easter Island, a daughter of GISW Awesome Maria (Maria’s Mon) and a $550K buyback as a KEESEP yearling in 2015, was covered by Uncle Mo in her first year at stud in 2017 and fetched a solid price last November. This is also the Robsham family of Grade I winners Discreet Cat (Forestry) and Discreetly Mine (Mineshaft), whose dam Pretty Discreet (Private Account) won the 1995 GI Alabama S. by eight lengths.

This Mar. 2 foal is the first produce for her dam, a two-time Grade III winner in 2016 while under care of trainer Chad Brown. The dark bay descends from a Stuart Janney family that includes MGSW Criminologist (Maria’s Mon), dam of MGSW Inspector Lynley (Lemon Drop Kid), MGSP Rescue Squad (Dynaformer) and MSP Party Now (Tiznow). Under the colt’s fourth dam is GISW Carriage Trail (Giant’s Causeway).

Hip 436, wlg, c, Air Force Blue–Verbouwen, by Kitten’s Joy

Air Force Blue’s year-younger half-brother Soleil de Paris (Lemon Drop Kid), a $535K KEESEP grad, has won three of his eight career starts in Japan for earnings of over $300K.
