AMO, Memo Team up for $1.1-Million Girvin Filly at Midlantic Sale

Kia Joorabchian's AMO Racing teamed up with the newly formed Memo Racing partnership to acquire a filly by Girvin (hip 368) for $1.1 million during the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic May 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale in Timonium Tuesday. The filly was the third to reach seven figures at the auction and was the second on the day from the Wavertree Stables consignment.

Kerri Radcliffe, bloodstock agent for Memo Racing, signed the ticket on the filly, who she said would be trained by Chad Brown.

Out of Scarlet Dixie (Broken Vow), the dark bay filly worked a furlong last week in a co-fastest :10 1/5. She had been purchased for $240,000 at last year's Keeneland September sale.
