With action fast and furious at the Tuesday session of the Keeneland September sale, three yearlings in a matter of four offerings each sold for more than $1 million.

The first was hip 283, a Constitution cold out Via Veritas (Street Sense), who hammered to Lee Searing of CRK Stables for $1.3 million. Bred by Runnymede Farm, Peter J. Callahan, Ecurie Loick Fouchet, and Meridian International Sarl, the Mar. 25 colt was consigned by Runnymede Farm LLC, agent. Magna Carta Bloodstock bought his dam for $275,000 at the 2021 Keeneland November sale.

Immediately following that colt was hip 284, a Curlin colt out of Virginia Key (Distorted Humor). The Mar. 22-foaled chestnut brought $1.4 million to the bid of Pete Bradley. Blue Heaven Farm bred him and consigned him through Lane's End, agent.

In short order, a Not This Time colt out of Vivo Per Lei (Empire Maker) entered the ring as hip 286. David Ingordo signed the ticket for Belladonna Racing, going to $1.3 million. John D. Gunther & Eurowest Bloodstock Services bred the Apr. 14-foaled dark bay, who was consigned by Glennwood Farm Inc., agent.
