SILVER RAPIDS IS SECOND TOP LOT AT OBS APRIL SALE
Asmussen signed the ticket on Silver Rapids, a
$320,000 MIZZEN MAST colt
for owner Mike McCarty of Austin, Texas. Out of the winning
Dynaformer mare River Dyna, the colt worked a quarter-mile in
:21.60.
Paul Sharp, agent, consigned the big gray colt for Kentucky
breeders Carrie and Craig Brogden. “Their horses are doing
extremely well and always showing up at the top levels at the sales
and races,” said Sharp, who has trained several horses for the
Brogdens this year. Sharp and his wife, Sarah, own Willow Creek
Ranch, a 133-acre training center in Williston, Florida. “Just
looking at him, we think he’ll be a serious three-year-old,” said
Asmussen.
