Constitutions—I love their minds, smart but competitive.

—Jim Fitzgerald

Halfway through the day, Sept. 17, at the Keeneland September Yearling Sale, Knockgriffin Farm led a Constitution   colt up to the sales pavilion. The $100,000 pinhook saw bidding go wild over the internet and phone, stopping at $900,000 with Pin Oak Stud victorious.

“He was amazing at the sale; he showed about 150 times in the two days and was unbelievably popular,” Jim Fitzgerald of Knockgriffin Farm said. “Every time he came out, he was professional, up and down with a huge walk, just kept over the ground and never took a bad step. He thrived in the atmosphere, ears up, happy horse, and got on with it. The good ones have a way of getting it done.”
