Moira, fresh from her spectacular victory in the Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Del Mar, is headlining Monday's Fasig-Tipton November Sale as Hip 293. The 5YO daughter of Ghostzapper, trained by Kevin Attard, brings impressive credentials to the ring, having amassed earnings of US$2,996,017 from seven victories in 17 starts.
Previous winners of the Filly & Mare Turf include the mighty Ouija Board (2004, 2006), who went on to land the Hong Kong Vase, and In Italian, who struck in 2023 before retiring to the paddocks.
The Bill Mott-trained War Like Goddess (Hip 210) is another notable entry, having finished fifth behind Moira in the Filly & Mare Turf. The 7YO English Channel mare boasts career earnings exceeding US$3 million and has achieved the remarkable feat of becoming the first horse since her sire to win consecutive runnings of the Gr.1 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic.
Full Count Felicia, coming off a seventh-place finish in the Filly & Mare Turf, enters the ring as Hip 260. The 5YO War Front mare, trained by Attard, brings solid credentials including a victory in the Gr.1 E.P. Taylor Stakes at Woodbine.
Honor D Lady (Hip 266), a multiple graded stakes winner by Honor Code, joins the prestigious catalogue following her seventh-place effort in the Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Distaff behind Thorpedo Anna. The Saffie Joseph Jr-trained mare has been consistently performing, having been placed 11 times from 15 starts.
Chili Flag, trained by Chad Brown, will be offered as Hip 235 following her spirited seventh-place finish against colts in the Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Mile. The daughter of Cityscape has demonstrated remarkable consistency, hitting the board in 15 of her 22 starts while accumulating earnings of US$1,146,627.
Adding further international flavour, Anisette heads to Keeneland's November Breeding Stock Sale as Hip 229. The English-bred daughter of Awtaad, trained by Leonard Powell, has proven her class in America with six victories from ten starts before her ninth-place finish in the Filly & Mare Turf.
The 4YO filly, representing Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, has earned US$956,971 and achieved multiple Group One success. Her consistent record shows 11 placings from 13 career starts, making her an attractive prospect for potential buyers seeking both racing and breeding credentials.
Past notable graduates of the Fasig-Tipton November Sale include champions Tepin, Lady Eli, and Monomoy Girl, who collectively achieved remarkable success on the international stage, enhancing the sale's reputation as a source of elite performers.
