Madcap Escapade Baby Brings $1.7 Million

Southern Equine went to $1.7 million to buy out partners Bruce Lunsford and John Sikura's Hill 'n' Dale Farm for a weanling filly by Pulpit. The bay is the first foal of GISW Madcap Escapade (Hennessy), who was purchased by the trio with this foal in utero for $6 million at this auction last year. Southern Equine owned a 25-percent share in the foal before making the seven-figure bid.
