The demand for a strong freshman sire class continued as a $2.3 million filly from the first crop of champion Jackie’s Warrior and a $1.2 million colt from the first crop of Cyberknife led Wednesday’s second session of the Ocala Breeders’ Sales Co.’s spring sale of 2-year-olds in training, which hit its midway point with gains. Five-time Grade 1 winner Jackie's Warrior, the Eclipse Award outstanding male sprinter of 2021, and two-time Grade 1 winner Cyberknife both stand at Spendthrift Farm. Their performances on Wednesday showed continued regard for this freshman class, as a $1.95 million colt from the first crop of Coolmore’s Epicenter led Tuesday’s opening session. Bolstered by this activity at the top of the market, OBS reports that 317 horses have sold for gross receipts of $50,805,000 through the first two days of this four-day sale.

The filly had distinguished herself by working a furlong in 9 3/5 seconds during last week's under-tack preview show on the Ocala Training Center's all-weather Safetrack, tying for the bullet work at the distance. She subsequently became the second highest-priced horse ever at the OBS spring sale, behind the $2.45 million for Conquistador in 2017. “We thought she was the best filly in the sale, and we thought we had the best colt in the sale,” Dean DeRenzo said, referring to a first-crop Flightline colt in the same Hartley/DeRenzo Thoroughbreds consignment who also worked a bullet furlong and who will sell Friday. “We were pretty confident about it because those kind of horses don’t come around very often. They stand out like a sore thumb. We were confident she would do really well.” The filly is out of the graded stakes-winning Indian Charlie mare Brazen Persuasion, dam of stakes-placed Ruggs. Alex Cole, the racing manager for Hay, said Wesley Ward will train this filly. The Cyberknife colt was purchased by the partnership of West Point Thoroughbreds and Mike Talla, with LEB and trainer John Sadler as agents. Consigned be de Meric Sales, the colt worked in 9 4/5 seconds during the breeze show. “He was so stretchy," Sadler said. "We’re looking for two-turn colts and we just liked him a lot,” The colt is out of the winning Unbridled’s Song mare Broadway Show.
