Debuting in a New York-bred maiden spot Sunday, CHARLOTTE'S HEART (Authentic) went home to Live Oak Plantation on a final bid of $725,000 at FTSAUG last year. Dam Achalaya, who herself sold for $725,000 at KEENOV carrying Charlotte's Heart in utero, has already produced MGISW and new Mill Ridge Farm stallion Casa Creed (Jimmy Creed) and GSW Chess's Dream (Jess's Dream).
