Amr Zedan Picks Up Not This Time Colt for $3.4 Million

With the attendees in the Humphrey S. Finney Pavilion at Fasig-Tipton's Saratoga sale barely able to control their applause, a Not This Time colt from the family of GI Travers Stakes winner Colonel John (Tiznow) brought $3.4 million from Donato Lanni, agent for Zedan Racing, midway through Monday's session. The dark bay, consigned as hip 72 by Nardelli Sales, agent, is a half-brother to 2019 GIII Schuylerville Stakes winner Comical (Into Mischief). Winning dam Kayce Ace is a full-sister to Colonel John, who also captured the GI Santa Anita Derby. Susan Casner bred the Mar. 9-foaled, $3.4-million yearling in Kentucky. The dark bay was the lone horse brought to the sale by Nardelli Sales.
