A Quality Road colt–out of the Unbridled's Song mare Pirate Queen–brought $390,000 from Conquest Stables at OBSJUN Friday. The gray, consigned by Ciaran Dunne's Wavertree Stables, breezed a quarter in :21. He RNA'd for $300,000 as a KEESEP yearling. “He reminds me a lot of Unbridledﾒs Song, who was a big handsome horse,” trainer Mark Casse said when reached for comment.ﾠ”I thought he was a really good mover. Weﾒre always trying to look for quality colts, and thatﾒs what I thought he looked like. I wasnﾒt surprised by the price–I thought thatﾒs about where heﾒd be.” Ernie Semersky's operation purchased last year's OBSJUN topper and this term's Marine S. winnerﾠConquest Top Gun (Pioneerof the Nile) for a saleﾠrecord $525,000.
