[1]by Sarah Mace

A filly by Majesticperfection named Perfection Lady topped the New York-bred offerings in Tuesday’s opening session of the Ocala Breeders’ Sales Company’s 2015 June Sale of Two-Year-Olds and Horses of Racing Age. The bay was hammered down to Sallusto & Albina for $135,000 after working a quarter mile under tack in :20 4/5.

Bred by Antonio Francesco’s Dormellito Stud and foaled on March 17 2013, Hip 70[2] is the second foal and first registered New York-bred out of America’s Lady, an unplaced Quiet American mare purchased by The Simmard Partnership at the 2013 Fasig-Tipton Kentucky Winter Mixed sale for $17,000. America’s Lady has since produced a yearling filly named Long Island Lady by Simmard (Dixieland Band) and a foal this year by the same sire. Simmard [3]stands at Mill Creek Farm[4] in Stillwater.

Kentucky-bred America’s Lady issues from the family of Grade 1 turf stakes winner, millionaire and producer Tuzla (FR). The mare’s second dam Krajina (FR) is a minor stakes winner abroad and likewise a producer.

Of the 19 New York-breds offered in the sale’s first session, 14 sold for an average of $33,229 and $13,500 median. Overall, the first day of trading at OBS, which saw a June Sale record $575,000 Scat Daddy colt change hands, posted an increase in average price to $37,052, up from $30,276 in 2014, and a decline in median to $17,500 compared with $23,000 a year ago.

The June Sale continues Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. Hip No.’s 287- 572 will be offered.
