The Selected Sale of Two-Year-Olds in Training took place on Tuesday 12 February. In it was hip 17, a dark bay filly from the first crop of graded stakes winner Read The Footnotes. She is out of Fit Right In, who belonged to my 2002 crop.
Fit Right In never raced. Her dam Gaye's Blossom is by Thirty Six Red, one of my all-time favourite horses. I also follow her Freud half sister Don't Mind Me (2004), who is an allowance winner and stakes placed.
Rightly So is Fit Right In's first foal and Tuesday was the first time she went through the ring. She had performed well in the under tack show, going 2f in 10.1 on 3 February. Showing speed in the under tack shows can really up the sales price, remember The Green Monkey anyone? :o)
She was consigned by Sequel Bloodstock and sold for a very neat $220,000. Zayat Stables bought her.
Her name was not on her catalogue page, but I hope they will keep her name. I like Rightly So. It sounds stubborn :o)
Anyway, keep an eye out for the girl when she gets to the races. I have added her to my 2006 crop.
