Into Mischief had the top filly during the Thursday session of the OBS Spring Sale of 2-year-olds in Training when Phoenix Thoroughbred III made a winning bid of $750,000.
The filly’s price was also the third-highest paid through the first three days of the auction, which has its final session on Friday.
Consigned by de Meric Sales, agent and bred by WinStar Farm, hip No. 787 had worked a quarter-mile in :21 1/5 seconds during the Under Tack Show. The bay is out of the Unbridled’s Song mare Unbridled Ridge and is a half-sister to four winners.
“I feel like I have good taste, just expensive,” Phoenix’s Tom Ludt said with a laugh. “She is beautiful. She’s smooth, she’s balanced, everything you want and you have to pay for them right now. She seemed really within herself and comfortable during the breeze.”
