About three-quarters of the way through the fourth session of the Keeneland November breeding stock sale, mare Sheikh’s Serenade was landed by Japan’s Shimokobe Farm for $550,000.
Consigned by Warrendale Sales, agent, the 8-year-old Unbridled’s Song mare, who was bred in Kentucky by Live Oak Stud, was the first horse to sell for more than a half-million dollars during the Nov. 7 session in Lexington. She is pregnant to Hat Trick.
