STORM CAT SETS KEENELAND ALIGHT 14 September 2005 |
|
Storm Cat's title of the most commercially attractive stallion
in the world was confirmed at Keeneland yesterday. Day one saw
no less than seven sons/ daughters of the Overbrook legend sell
for a million plus. The top five lots on day were all by Storm
Cat and all were sold for over $3 million. Day two saw the sale topper in the form of a $9.7 million yearling by Storm Cat out of Tranquility Lake. The latter, a multiple grade one winner, is by Rahy whose daughters have done so well with Storm Cat. John Ferguson signed for the brown colt. The second top priced yearling on the day was also a son of Storm Cat. Out of Kentucky Oaks winner Secret Status, the colt was also purchased by John Ferguson. The chestnut cost a cool $6.3 million. The most expensive filly, also by Storm Cat, is out of high-class
mare Warrior Queen. She sold for $3.9 million.
