Broodmare Camryn's Gem (Unbridled's Song) topped all returns during session 10 of the Keeneland November Sale Thursday, bringing $110,000 from Calumet Farm. Consigned by Hill 'n' Dale Sales Agency as hip 3352, the 6-year-old sold in foal to young sire Wicked Strong. The grey's dam is a half to the stakes-winning dam of top sire and GISW Tapit and to champion sprinter Rubiano (Fappiano). This is also the family of GI Belmont S. winner and champion 3-year-old Summer Bird (Birdstone).

Through Book 5, 2197 horses have sold for a combined $200,620,600–the average is $91,316, down 6.4% from this point in the sale last year, while the median remains unchanged at $40,000. The buyback rate is 23.6% compared to 27.6% 12 months ago.

Calumet also picked up Thursday's top weanling, a $65,000 Dialed In colt (hip 3529) who was consigned by Shawhan Place LLC, Agent VI.

A total of 235 transactions Thursday yielded $2,886,300 in gross sales. The average was $12,282 and median was $7,500. The RNA rate was 25.6%.
