Flightline Craze Continues With Another Seven-Figure Filly

Demand for progeny by Horse of the Year Flightline stayed strong throughout Monday's session of Keeneland September as a filly (hip 168) sold for $1,500,000 to Japan's Naohiro Sakaguchi.

The filly is a daughter of 'TDN Rising Star' Taylor S (Medaglia d'Oro) who is herself a half-sister to both fellow 'Rising Star' Liam's Map (Unbridled's Song) and current hot sire Not This Time (Giant's Causeway).

Bred by Albaugh Family Stables, she was consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency.

Sakaguchi also struck earlier in the session for another Flightline, purchasing a colt out of Mira Alta for $1.7m.
