Zayat Stables, EQB, Agent, snapped up a colt by New York-based Mission Impazible, currently the nation’s leading freshman sire, out of a graded stakes-producing mare for $185,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky July selected yearling sale on Tuesday.
Hip 192, who was sold by Sequel New York, Agent, was bred by a partnership of Sequel Thoroughbreds and Twin Creeks Farm – the same connections who brought out Mission Impazible juvenile standout, and Tremont Stakes winner Silver Mission.
The grey or roan colt, who was foaled on April 9, 2015, is out of Deputy Reality, an unplaced daughter of Halo Reality, whose dam is graded stakes placed Halo Reality. Deputy Reality is a half sister to stakes winner and graded stakes-placed A. P. Reality and stakes performer Can’t Stop the Kid.
Deputy Reality has produced three winners, topped by Teeth of the Dog, by Bluegrass Cat, who won the 2012 Grade 2 Dwyer Stakes and earned over $414,000.
The Mission Impazible colt brought over twice the sale average, which was $86,101. Mission Impazible (Unbridled’s Song), stands at Sequel Stallions New York for a 2016 stud fee of $7,500.
