Oh definitely. He still got $700,000 immediately after everybody got themselves geared up over the $1.15mil filly.

A bit surprised that the Giant's Causeway-Grace Anatomy filly RNA'd at $295,000. Maybe they figured with her breeding she's worth holding onto if they don't get the right price. We don't exactly know that the people bidding are aware of some physical issue that we're not--Barbara Banke knew Samantha Nicole had sesamoiditis, and they ended up getting a full sister to Rachel Alexandra for $700,000 in 2012. You'd think she go for more but she could've vetted better.

The Kitten's Joy-Lastofthesummerwine chestnut colt looked great and RNA'd at $375,000. I'm curious as to what they were hoping to get. I did really like him. Three outs for Kitten's Joy and the others sold for $300,000, $340,000 and $400,000. $375,000 was right around where you might expect based on his other results. This one really should've gotten his highest sale though just from my eyeballs on the feed, so I guess they felt similarly.
