LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — A strapping chestnut colt by Distorted Humor topped the second day of Keeneland’s September yearling sale.
The colt, out of Angel’s Nest, went for $2.05 million to agent Mike Ryan.
A day after an A.P. Indy colt fetched $4.25 million, the highest price for a yearling at a North American public auction in four years, things were solid but subdued as the market settled down.
The Distorted Humor colt was the only horse to command seven figures during Monday night’s session.
Bidding for a filly by A.P. Indy reached $1.25 million but failed to meet the reserve price. Several other horses were sold just shy of the $1 million mark.
The sale runs through Sept. 26.
