The Rogueish colt consigned as 589 works three-eighths in :32 4/5 at the June 7 session of the OBS June Sale under tack show

A trio of fillies stopped the timer in a session-topping :09 4/5 for an eighth-mile during the fourth day of the Ocala Breeders' June 2-Year-Olds & Horses of Racing Age Sale under tack show June 7.

Two Florida-bred fillies, Hip 568 and Hip 657, were among the fastest clockers. Consigned by Cruzin' Thoroughbreds, Hip 568 is a daughter of third-crop stallion Bucchero   and out of the winning Exploit mare Deed. Sarah Russell Stables picked up Hip 568 for only $8,000 at last year's OBS Winter Mixed Sale out of the Summerfield consignment. Three of Deed's seven foals have been winners, including the stakes-placed Ek Haseena  (Songandaprayer), dam of 2023 Saudi Derby (G3) victor Commissioner King (Commissioner ).

Hip 657 was also an OBS Winter Mixed Sale find, selling to Marion Fernandez from the Kaizen Sales consignment. The daughter of The Big Beast  , a full sibling to two winners, is consigned by the Iran Faria Corporation.

Completing the trio was Hip 624, a Kentucky-bred daughter of Justify   from the Hartley/de Renzo Thoroughbreds consignment. Hartley/de Renzo purchased the filly for $275,000 at the 2023 Keeneland September Yearling Sale from Four Star Sales. An April foal, she is out of the young Paynter mare Etching, a daughter of $907,652 earner and 2005 Kentucky Oaks (G1) victress Summerly.

Fillies also paved the way for the day's fastest quarter-mile on Friday. Hip 569, consigned by Tom McCrocklin, and Hip 633 from the Ocala Stud consignment both breezed in :20 4/5. A Kentucky-bred Complexity   filly, Hip 569 is produced from the Congrats mare Deedeezee, a half sibling to three black-type performers. Hip 633, a homebred for Ocala Stud, is by first-crop sire Win Win Win   and a half sibling to three winners, including the graded stakes-placed Courteous (Midnight Lute  ).

The quickest three-eighths of the day belonged to Hip 589, a Florida-bred son of second-crop sire Rogueish   who worked in :32 4/5. Produced from the Leroidesanimaux mare Doll Face, the dam of two winners from two foals to race, the colt is consigned my MRM Thoroughbreds.
