A filly by Nyquist (hip 372), who stopped the clock for a furlong in :9 3/5, hammered down at an even $2-million to Boyd Racing during Wednesday's OBS March Sale.
“She was just an absolute queen the whole week,” said Hannah Jennings, who signed the ticket. “She was super professional. Obviously her stride was fantastic on the track and physically she's everything we could want. Nyquist is one of our favorites. He can get you a really elite horse and Ciaran Dunne sold two Grade I-winning Nyquist fillies out of OBS sales. So hopefully she can be the third.”
Consigned by Dunne's Wavertree Stables, Inc., the filly is out of a Lucky Pulpit half-sister to GISW Smooth Like Strait (Midnight Lute).
Bred in Kentucky by Cannon Thoroughbreds LLC, she was sold last year at Keeneland as a September yearling for $300,000 to Forest Bloodstock.
She is the second seven-figure Nyquist sold by Wavertree Stables this sale joining a colt who brought $1.2-million during Tuesday's opening session.
