Coolmore Make a 'Giant' Purchase

Hip 104 was all the rage after a head-turning co-quickestᅠ:9 4/5ᅠbreeze Thursday, and brought an expectedly gaudy $1.15 million Monday evening from Coolmore's Demi O'Byrne. Out of MSW Dixie Dreamer (Mutakddim), the chestnut son of Giant's Causeway hails from the female family of MGISW Life at Ten (Malibu Moon). The Feb. 26 foal was consigned to the sale by SGV Thoroughbreds (Steve Venosa), agent. He was a $150,000 KEENOV weanling and brought the same price from Crupi's New Castle Farm at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale last August. Coolmore, who stands the sale topper's sire in Kentucky, purchased hip 24 for $450,000 and hip 48 for $550,000 earlier in the session. Coolmore bought eventual GISW Havana (Dunkirk) for $575,000 here 12 months ago.
