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.
