Nearing the halfway point of the Sept. 14 session of the Keeneland September yearling sale, a Curlin colt garnered the top price of the day to that point when purchased by Ken McPeek for Fern Circle for $850,000.
After two trips through the ring early on during Thursday's session of the Keeneland September yearling sale, Albaugh Family Stables went to $800,000 to land a chestnut Curlin colt.
The colt (Hip 820) was bred and raised by Stonestreet Thoroughbred Holdings and sold by Francis and Barbara Vanlangendonck's Summerfield consignment. Sumptuous is a half sister to graded stakes winner Strike It Rich (by Unbridled's Song).
The War Front colt (Hip 790) is the first foal out of the Empire Maker daughter and graded stakes winner Stanwyck.
Fireworks lit up the sales ring during the Aug. 8 session of the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga selected yearling sale, with big prices from progeny of several different sires.
