Practical Joke Strikes Again With $110,000 Weanling

Practical Joke’s success at the 2019 Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale continued Monday when Hip 1942 was purchased for $110,000 early in the sixth session.

Bought by Red Devil Bloodstock, the filly out of winning mare Lady Micaela was consigned by War Horse Place as agent with Mike Anderson Racing breeding the filly. A daughter of stakes winning High Speed Access, Lady Micaela is the dam of three-time winner Call Me Kayla from two of racing age.

Lady Micaela is a half-sister to stakes placed Access This and a granddaughter of Grade II winner Speed Dialer, who is a half-sister to Canadian Champion Wavering Girl.

A Grade I winner at two and three, Practical Joke has been high in demand this breeding stock season. His first weanlings topped the Saratoga Fall Sale and are currently averaging $103,063 for 16 sold at Keeneland’s November Breeding Stock sale, selling for up to $260,000.
