Following the fireworks that ensued with the sale of a record-setting $3-million Gun Runner colt earlier in OBS's Thursday's session, a pair of juveniles surpassed the $1 million in quick succession. Hip 721, a filly by Maxfield brought a final bid of $1.25 million from Marquee Bloodstock, while only a few hips later, a colt by Nyquist drew $1 million from Shannon Potter, bidding on behalf of Epic Horses.
Out of All in With Aces (Quiet American), the half-sister to GISW Hard Aces was consigned by de Meric Sales. She was purchased for $165,000 at Keeneland November in 2023.
The latter, himself a half-sibling to MSW Street Lute, was offered by Scanlon Training and Sales, who secured the colt for $150,000 at Fasig-Tipton last October.
