Transplendid, dam of Dennis' Moment, added to Fasig-Tipton sale

Transplendid, the dam of leading two-year-colt Dennis’ Moment, and her weanling filly by Into Mischief, have been supplemented to Tuesday's Fasig-Tipton November Sale. They will be consigned by Ballysax Bloodstock, agent for Grantley Acres.

A 9-year-old daughter of Elusive Quality, Transplendid's current 2-year-old Dennis’ Moment is one of the top colts of his generation. He quickly made a name for himself this summer, breaking his maiden by a remarkable 19 ¼ lengths at Ellis Park on July 27. He followed up that performance with another facile victory in the Iroquois (G3) at Churchill Downs on Sept. 14. Most recently, he went off as the odds-on favorite in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile but was compromised by a terrible stumble leaving the gate. 

Transplendid, who is catalogued as Hip 221, will be offered in foal to More Than Ready. Uni's win in Saturday's Breeders' Cup Mile was the seventh Breeders' Cup victory by a son or daughter More Than Ready – making him the No. 1-ranked sire all time by Breeders' Cup wins.

Transplendid will be preceded in the ring by her weanling filly (Hip 220) by Into Mischief, sire of the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint winner Covfefe. Into Mischief is currently North America's top-ranked sire.

"Transplendid and her 2019 Into Mischief filly are strong late additions to the catalogue," said Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning. "Dennis' Moment has already stamped himself a special horse, and as of this morning, is the co-second favorite in Kentucky Derby future wagering pools – which demonstrates what high regard the public holds him in despite his poor racing luck in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile. There is substantial upside with this mare and foal package."

These entries may now be viewed online and will also be available via the equineline catalogue app. Print versions will be available on site at Fasig-Tipton.

The Fasig-Tipton November Sale starts at 3 p.m. Tuesday in Lexington, Ky.
