We feel that she has some major upside and it only helps to control her future.”Under the care of Michael McCarthy, Whitethorn finished third in her career debut going 8 1/2 furlongs at Churchill Downs in September before coming home runner-up–beaten 1 3/4 lengths to American Pearl (Gun Runner)–in a one-mile test at the Louisville oval on Nov. 5.“We bought her mother earlier in the sale and part of the appeal to the team and to Mike was that we knew she had a current filly on the track showing promise,” said West, explaining the purchase. “We already own the factory so to speak so we just bought the product.”According to West, the filly will head to trainer Todd Pletcher.Hailing from a prolific female line, third dam Turbo Dream (Unbridled) is responsible for dual Grade I winner Dream Rush, herself the dam for Grade I-winning Dreaming of Julia, who in turn produced two-time champion Malathaat.Julia Shining and Dream Pauline also stem from the Dream Rush pipeline.Through seven sessions, Repole Stable purchased seven head for total expenditures of $2,575,000 while averaging $367,857.
