Monomoy Girl, Midnight Bisou and Uni to be sold at Fasig-Tipton in November

Elite Sales will offer three champion mares at the Fasig-Tipton November Sale.

Monomoy Girl, owned by Monomoy Stables, Michael Dubb, The Elkstone Group and Bethlehem Stables, was 2018’s Champion Three-Year-Old Filly and the 2018 Breeders’ Cup Distaff winner.

She is three-for-three in 2020 and added her most recent Grade 1 win in last Friday’s La Troienne at Churchill Downs. The six-time Grade 1 winner is now being aimed at the Breeders’ Cup Distaff. She has crossed the finish line first in 13 of 14 lifetime starts.

The 2019 Champion Older Mare Midnight Bisou is owned by Bloom Racing Stable, Madaket Stables and Allen Racing. A five-time Grade 1 winner, Midnight Bisou was second in this year’s $20 million Saudi Cup to Maximum Security. She has earned more than $7.4m while never being off the board in 22 lifetime starts.

Her 13 graded stakes victories equal four-times champion Beholder, and are more than Songbird (12), Ashado (11), Royal Delta (10), and Rachel Alexandra (9). She will run next in the Grade 1 Spinster before a scheduled date in the Breeders’ Cup.

British-bred Uni, last year’s Breeders’ Cup Mile winner and Champion Female Turf Horse, completes the trio selling on November 8 for owners Michael Dubb, Head of Plains Partners, Robert LaPenta and Bethlehem Stables.

A three-time Grade 1 winner, Uni finished 2019 strongly, setting a Keeneland course record when posting a dominant win in the Grade 1 First Lady before her Breeders’ Cup Mile triumph at Santa Anita. She is on target for a repeat in the Grade 1 First Lady.

“This is a-once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to offer three champions in the prime of their careers," said Elite Sales’ Bradley Weisbord.

“They aren’t one-hit wonders; they have been leaders in their divisions since they hit the racetrack. With these unprecedented times we look forward to speaking with all interested parties as these mares will appeal to anyone around the world looking to target the highest end of the thoroughbred industry.”
