Carribean Sunset Goes for $1 Million

Broodmare prospect Carribean Sunset, a group III winner in Ireland and a stakes winner in this country, brought $1 million Nov. 8 during the opening session in the Keeneland November breeding stock sale in Lexington. Australian bloodstock agent James Bester purchased the 5-year-old daughter of Danehill Dancer from Helen Alexander’s Middlebrook Farm, agent.

Bester was acting on behalf of Kiaora Stud, an Australian operation, but he declined to discuss details of its ownership.

“She’ll go back to Australia and be bred to one of the leading stallions there,” said Bester of Carribean Sunset. “She was a beautiful mover, a very classy filly with a wonderful head.”
