A colt from the second crop of Classic winner Empire Maker (Unbridled) elicited the highest price at yesterdayís opening session of the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky Fall Yearlings sale in Lexington, Kentucky. Preston Madden purchased the son of Grade I winner Nonsuch Bay (Mr. Greeley) for $320,000. Warrendale Sales, as agent, consigned the colt, who was catalogued as hip 251. He is the first foal out of his eight-year-old dam, who counted the GI Mother Goose S. among her victories. Nonsuch Bay was purchased for $1.15 million by NeverTell Farm LLC at the 2004 Keeneland November sale. Stonewall Farm Stallions bred hip 251, who failed to meet his reserve at $370,000 at last monthís Keeneland September sale. The second and final session of the sale gets underway today at 10 a.m. For complete results, visit www.fasigtipton.com.
