Intangaroo, Mrs. Hudson top Keeneland session at $200,000

The broodmares INTANGAROO and MRS. HUDSON each brought $200,000 at Monday's seventh session of the 2017 Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale.

Intangaroo, a multiple Grade 1 winner of $623,231, was sold to Aaron Sones. Offered in foal to Silent Name on an April 4 cover, Hip No. 2230 was consigned by Adena Springs, which also sold a 2018 No-Guarantee season to Ghostzapper with the 13-year-old mare.

A daughter of Orientate and the multiple stakes-winning Tasso mare Tasso's Magic Roo, Intangaroo captured the Santa Monica H. (G1), Ballerina (G1), and Humana Distaff (G1) during her racing days and has reared three winners from as many to race.

Mrs. Hudson, offered by Godolphin in foal to Midshipman on a March 13 cover, was gaveled down to Anderson Farms. The five-year-old by Street Cry compiled a record of 12-3-1-2, $134,492, at the track. Out of Grade 2 winner Sara Louise, by Malibu Moon, Hip 2301 counts as her third dam Grade 3 scorer Til Forbid.
