Striking Speightstown colt hammers for $700K Keeneland

Speightstown had his best result to date Wednesday at the 2018 Keeneland September Yearling sale when SF Bloodstock and Starlight West reached to $700,000 for a flashy colt by the WinStar stallion.

Hip No. 669, consigned by Denali Stud, is the second foal out of La Troienne S. (G2) and Shuvee S. (G3) winner Authenticity, while his third dam Appealing Missy was a stakes winner in both Europe and the United States.  

In addition to his excellent 2018 sales results, Speightstown has produced the likes of Qurbaan, Matera Sky, Switzerland and National Flag, all new graded stakes winners this year as he closes in on the 100 lifetime mark.
