Curlin Filly Sells for $700,000

Hip 285, a filly by two-time Horse of the Year Curlin, sold for $700,000 at the Selected Yearlings Showcase. The chestnut filly was purchased by Donato Lanni, agent for Michael Lund Petersen, from the consignment of Blue Heaven Farm.

Curlin is the sire of top fillies like this year's Coaching Club American Oaks (G1) Paris Lights; Eclipse Champion Stellar Wind; and multiple Grade 1 winner Curalina.

This filly is out the graded stakes winning Newfoundland mare Our Khrysty, already the dam of three winners, including Grade 2 placed filly Virginia Key. Our Khrysty is a half-sister to seven other winners, including to Grade 1 winner Bullsbay; multiple stakes winner Vegas No Show; and stakes winner Hidden Expression, who produced stakes winner Mask. The immediate family includes Grade 1 winning millionaire Grecian Flight.

Hip 285 was bred in Kentucky by the consignor.
