Well-Related Ahavah Outdoes Her Sister At Keeneland November

Ahavah ( City of Light –Holiday Soiree, by Harlan's Holiday) , a maiden winner at first asking and second in her only other trip to the races behind Good Cheer (Medaglia d'Oro) in the GII Fair Grounds Oaks in 2025, was purchased by Hill 'n' Dale Farm for $4.8 million at Keeneland November just a handful of hips after Quietside brought $5.2 million. Bred by Rock Ridge Thoroughbreds, Ahavah was purchased for $400,000 at the Keeneland September sale in 2023, two years after Holiday Soiree's foal of 2020, a filly by Gun Runner , made $280,000 at the same auction.
