Blind Luck's Dam Sells for $1.85 Million

Lucky One, the dam of 2010 Kentucky Oaks (gr. I) winner  Blind Luck, sold for $1.85 million nearing the afternoon’s midway point Nov. 9 during the second session of the Keeneland November breeding stock sale in Lexington. Teruya Yoshida’s Shadai Farm of Japan purchased the winning 8-year-old Best of Luck mare, who is carrying a foal by Pollard's Vision   that is a full sibling to Blind Luck.

The immediate underbidder was a buying team from Northern Farm led by Shunsuke Yoshida. His father, Katsumi, owns Japan-based Northern Farm and is one of Teruya Yoshida's brothers.

“Blind Luck is a very, very good racehorse and the mare also had good conformation; she is a very good mare it looks like,” said Dr. Mitsuru Ikeda, who works for Shadai.
