A New York-bred daughter of champion sprinter Mitole sold for $125,000 Monday to highlight the two-day OBS October yearling sale.

Hip 30[2], who is out of the Empire Maker mare Sinister Siren, was purchased by Classic Bloodstock for Gary Anderson and wound up the second highest-priced filly and co-seventh most expensive yearling at the sale.

Bred by Trail Creek Stables LLC, foaled at Mill Creek Farm in Stillwater and consigned by Lisa McGreevy’s Abbie Road Farm, agent, the filly is the first foal out of the half-sister to stakes-placed Unanimously from the family of Canadian champion Delightful Mary and graded stakes winner Delightful Kiss.

OBS reported sales 50 of the 70 New York-bred yearlings over the two sessions for $938,900, an average price of $19,678.

Hip 602[3], a filly by leading New York sire Central Banker, topped the open portion of the sale Tuesday on a bid of $43,000 from Kathryn Martin.

Bred by McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds LLC and Spruce Lane Farm, foaled at McMahon of Saratoga in Saratoga Springs and consigned by McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds, agent, the chestnut filly is out of the winning Harlan’s Holiday mare Lady Daphne.

The Central Banker filly is a half-sister to Lady Jasmine, a New York-bred daughter of Cairo Prince also bred by McMahon and Spruce Lane, and a winner in her debut this summer at Saratoga Race Course. Lady Daphe is also the dam of the winning New York-bred Laoban filly Proper Grammar.

Central Banker, on top of the New York general sire list with more than $4 million in progeny earnings in 2022, stands for $7,500 at McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds in Saratoga Springs.

David Basalo purchased the sale’s most expensive New York-bred colt, going to $50,000 for Hip 164[4], a son of Vino Rosso. Bred by Drumkenny Farm and Joe Senkovich and consigned by Colin Brennan Bloodstock, agent, the colt is out of the Medaglia d’Oro mare Lauded.
