She was purchased in the Fasig-Tipton February Mixed Sale.. You get all kinds in it.. Broodmare prospects that could continue to race for new owners or be taken straight to the shed.. Horses like Sumwon that are early in their career.. Older horses being liquidated by stables leaving the game.. whatever. It's a "mixed" bag. Sumwon was a newly-turned 3 year old at the time, and with the win under her belt could have been bought a broodmare or to continue to race. She fit our the interests of our undertaking well as horse in training with some upside that had residual value as a broodmare prospect potentrially down the road.
