Sequel's Keepmeinmind Sires First Foal in New York

Multiple grade 1-placed, grade 2 winner Keepmeinmind   sired his first reported foal in New York when a filly out of Wintrily was born Jan. 20 at Sequel New York.

Sequel New York co-bred the filly and Wintrily, a daughter of Carpe Diem   out of multiple stakes winner Winter Book  (Any Given Saturday), with Lakland Farm. Wintrily is a half sister to stakes winner Tricky Temper  (Into Mischief  ), who recently ran third in the Franklin Square Stakes at Aqueduct Racetrack. Winter Book is a half sister to Iroquois Stakes (G3) winner Motor City  (Street Sense  ) and group-placed stakes winner Satulagi  (Officer).

"We couldn't be happier with how this foal is built," said Becky Thomas with Sequel New York. "She has a great size and shape to her, plenty of leg and has all the parts and pedigree to be a great racehorse."

Keepmeinmind is a son of the late Laoban, who started his stud career at Sequel Stallions New York. He earned a grade 1 placing in his second career start when he was runner-up in the 2020 Breeders' Futurity (G1) at Keeneland and went on to finish third in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile (G1). He became a graded stakes winner in the Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes (G2). At 3, he placed in the Ohio Derby (G3) and Jim Dandy Stakes (G2), and finished third in the 2022 Woodward Stakes (G1) before being retired with a 2-3-3 record out of 14 starts and earnings of $903,237.

Keepmeinmind stands at Sequel for $5,000.
