Summer Wind Farm's Jane Lyon went to $1.7 million for multiple grade 3 winner Edgeway Nov. 7 at the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale.
"I think she's a beautiful mare. She's won enough money, she's fast and we'll see what happens," Lyon said.
Consigned by Lane's End as Hip 156, the 5-year-old Competitive Edge mare last ran Nov. 5 at Keeneland in the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint (G1) where she finished seventh for trainer John Sadler and Hronis Racing.
From 14 starts, the mare's record is 8-2-1 including wins in the 2021 and 2022 Rancho Bernardo Handicap (G3) and the Las Flores Stakes (G3) this year and a second in the 2021 F&M Sprint. She has $763,860 in earnings.
Lyon, who bred and owns a share of Flightline , says she did not expect to have to go as far as she did for the mare. She added that she believes Edgeway will mix well with Flightline.
"We're still doing research on pedigree to see which bloodlines will or won't suit (Flightline) with his pedigree. We thought she would suit him for sure, that egged us on a little bit," she said.
Edgeway was bred in Kentucky by Pope McLean and Valerie and David Blethen out of the Stormin Fever mare Magical Solution. The dam has three winners from four foals to race. Her last foal is an unraced 4-year-old Tiznow colt named Tiz the Rocket.
