2018 GI Breeders' Cup F/M Sprint winner and Eclipse winner Shamrock Rose (First Dude) (hip 170) sold for $2.5 million to Michael Shannon at the 2019 Fasig-Tipton November sale, and bettered that price Monday at Keeneland when she went for $3 million to Japan's Tomoyuki Nakamura of KI Farm. She was offered this time with a coveted Curlin cover. The Lane's End consignee's first foal, a War Front colt, sold to Ingordo Bloodstock this Keeneland September for $175,000 and she produced a Nyquist colt in 2022. Her half-sister Loyalty (Hard Spun) is a two-time stakes winner this term.
