Keeneland September Underway - $2.3million Into Mischief Filly Sets Pace

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday September 12

The 2023 Keeneland September Yearling Sale is underway in Kentucky and the early pace-setter is a filly by champion sire Into Mischief that caught the attention of Shadwell Racing.

$2.3million Into Mischief filly from Delightful Joy

Consigned by Gainesway, the filly sold for $2.3million and is a half-sister to Group II winner Window Shopping from Group III winning Tapit mare Delightful Joy.

The top selling colt so far at $1.35million is the half-brother by Uncle Mo to Champion Older Mare Midnight Bisou from top producing Group III winner Deiva Delite, who is also the dam of another Group III winner in Verifying and stakes-winner Stage Left.

He was offered by Hunter Valley Farm and purchased by Chuck Sonson, Woodford, and West Point.

The first million dollar yearling of the sale came early when Lot 18, a colt by Into Mischief from dual Group I winner American Gal sold for $1.1million to Grandview Equine.

The sale continues.
