Broodmare Prospects Top Keeneland March Digital Sale

Broodmare prospects Shockingly  and Motown Girl —both siblings to graded stakes winners and consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency, agent—each sold March 23 for $50,000 to top Keeneland's March Digital Sale as part of Keeneland's Digital Sales Ring platform.

Andre Lynch, agent, purchased Shockingly, a 3-year-old daughter of Darley stallion Nyquist   who is a half sister to Apollo Kentucky, a grade 1 winner in Japan and earner of more than $3 million, and to stakes-placed Beau Ravelle . Bred in Kentucky by Doug and Felicia Branham, Shockingly is out of Dixiana Delight (by Gone West), and is from the family of stakes winners Lake Lady, Slinkylady, and One Night Lover. The filly made her career debut Feb. 20 at Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots where she rallied from far back at the top of the stretch to finish second beaten a head for trainer Bret Calhoun. 

Motown Girl, a 4-year-old daughter of Ashford Stud stallion Uncle Mo  , sold to Randy Coker. Bred in Kentucky by Colts Neck Stables, Motown Girl is out of the multiple stakes-winning Northern Afleet  mare Cash's Girl . She is a full sister to grade 3 winner Name Changer   and from the family of champion and sire Afleet Alex  .

The one-day mixed March Digital Sale grossed $128,000 for six horses sold from 22 offered. The average price was $21,333 and the median was $11,500. Keeneland will host its next Digital Sale May 25. Additional digital sales are scheduled for June, July, August, October, and December.
