Wallace Gilroy and partners bid $625,000 for a Raise A Native son at Keeneland, the highest price ever paid for a yearling. Evans and various buyers competed as prices surged, while Mr Prospector’s success and later retirement cast a twist on the market. Keeneland sold 320 animals for $17.1 million, Japan’s reduced bid, and notable purchases by Lou Goldfine, Raymond Guest, and John Gaines. Majestic Prince’s legacy and Crowned Prince’s record show profits can outpace racing returns. Evie Greedy to skate at the Invitational Championships in August in Paramount’s Teeland Arena.
