3 x Grade 1 winner Practical Joke’s (Into Mischief) first crop were in demand again during Book 1 of the @keeneland January Sale.
His top priced lot - Hip 550, was sold by @brookdalefarm to Larry Best’s Oxo Equine for $320,000, making him the third highest priced short yearling of Book 1!
Katie Taylor @taylor _made_farm who signed the ticket on behalf of Oxo Equine commented, “We really like Practical Joke’s. They are a little bit different than the Into Mischiefs, they have a lot of substance and size already on them. And they have a little more body to them, but they’ve got a lot of the same good characteristics, too. They are pretty straightforward and easy-going horses. And they all seem really athletic. They speak to me like the American Pharoahs did when they were yearlings. They all are really good movers.” Other top prices (all pictured) include Hip 548, a colt out of Bama Belle who sold to Brookstone for $210,000, and Hips 421 & 321, two fillies who both brought the hammer down at $150,000, selling to Empire Thoroughbreds, agent for Kingsport Farm & Andre Lynch.
