Hennessy, Boundary fillies drill a quarter-mile in :21

Hip No. 60, ROSY WREATH (Hennessy), and Hip 116, a Boundary filly, each

drilled a quarter-mile in :21 during Monday's final training preview for the

Keeneland April Two-Year-Olds in Training Sale in Lexington, Kentucky. This is

the first juvenile auction in North America to use a Polytrack surface for its

under tack shows.

Rosy Wreath is consigned by Sequel Bloodstock (Becky Thomas), agent. The

Maryland-bred filly is the second foal from Royal Feat (Kingmambo), who is a

half-sister to stakes-winning, stakes producer Blue Sky Princess (Conquistador

Cielo) as well as stakes victress Vaguely Rich (Caveat). This is the family of

Grade 1 queen Reluctant Guest (Hostage). In the first training preview on April

9, the bay juvenile worked one furlong in :10.

The Boundary filly was produced by the stakes-winning Housebuster mare Aces,

making her a full sister to Bank President, who finished third in the John B.

Campbell Breeders' Cup H. on February 17. The youngster hails from the same

female line as multiple Grade 1 hero and $1.8-million earner Ruhlmann (Mr.

Leader). Offered by Kirkwood Stables, agent, the bay clocked :21 2/5 for a

quarter-mile last week.

A colt by Elusive Quality reeled off the fastest furlong in :10 for O & H

Bloodstock, agent. Cataloged as Hip 104, the chestnut is out of multiple stakes

winner and Grade 2-placed Up an Eighth (Ferdinand) and comes from the family of

multiple Grade 1 star, $2.6 million-earner and noted sire Broad Brush (Ack Ack).

The juvenile covered the same distance in :10 1/5 during the initial preview.

Hip 124, a son of Kingmambo, turned in the swiftest quarter-mile on the turf

when exercising in :22. From the consignment of Stephens Thoroughbreds, agent,

the dark bay is the second foal produced by French Group 1 heroine Amonita (GB)

(Anabaa), who is herself a half-sister to multiple Grade 3 winner Cox Orange (Trempolino),

the dam of English stakes victress and classic-placed Vista Bella (Diktat). Last

week, the two-year-old sped one furlong on the main track in :10 3/5.

The sale begins Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. (EDT). For more information, visit
