Speightstown Colt Tops Early Returns at Keeneland

Thursday, January 1, 1970 | 12:00 am

John Ferguson went to $700,000 to bring home a son of Speightstown during Monday's opening session of the Keeneland September sale in Lexington. The chestnut yearling is out of Taj Aire (Taj Alriyadh) and is a three-quarter brother to MGSW Elusive Diva (Elusive Quality). He was purchased for $280,000 at last year's Keeneland November auction.
