Impinktoo Tops Lexington Mixed Sale
Fresh off her 1:49.4 world record performance to kick off the Saturday card at The Red Mile, Impinktoo made her second splash of the weekend as the sale topper for the inaugural Lexington Selected Mixed Sale on Sunday (Oct. 7) at the Fasig-Tipton Pavilion in Lexington, Kentucky.
A winner of eight races and more than $412,000 over her 25-race career, Impinktoo has more than just racehorse potential. The daughter of Manofmanymissions - Margie Seelster is a half-sister to 2015 Hambletonian winner Pinkman, himself a world record holder in his career and a winner of nearly $3 million. One of his co-owners clearly thought enough of the sister as Canadian expat Herb Liverman signed the sales slip for Impinktoo, paying $300,000 in the process.
Liverman was extremely active at the high end of the sale, paying $150,000 apiece for the two available Muscle Hill shares. He also shelled out $170,000 for trotting filly Whata Workout (Donato Hanover - Southwind Sofia), a filly from the family of trotting speedsters Mission Brief, Tactical Landing, The Ice Dutchess and new world record holder Ice Attraction.
A pair of six-figure sales could be headed to Ontario as regally-bred Megadolce (Cantab Hall - Bella Dolce) was sold for $180,000 to agent Horse Fly International of Dundas, Ont. Kristine Anne, an Andover Hall sister to millionaire Charmed Life, was purchased by Trenton's Tim Klemencic for $100,000.
Three high-profile sale entries co-owned by Canadian Hall of Famer Carl Jamieson were listed as RNAs -- Cambridge Kate at $105,000, Trix And Stones at $190,000 and Dunbar Hall at $200,000. Another Jamieson entry, Champlain winner CT Conabra was purchased by Brad Grant for $98,000.
