Shortleaf Stable’s homebred  mare QUIETSIDE topped the opening day of the Keeneland November sale with $5.2 million bid from Chris Baker, acting on behalf of Peter McCausland’s Erdenheim Farm Thoroughbreds.  Consigned by Stone Farm, QUIETSIDE was sold in foal to Nyquist.

The 4-year-old daughter of Malibu Moon was also foaled and raised at Stone for breeder John Ed Anthony.  QUIETSIDE earned in $1,051,575 at the races and won or placed in nine of 12 starts.  She won the Fantasy S.-G2 at Oaklalwn as a 3-year-old and was twice G1-placed as juvenile in the Alcibiades S.-G1 at Keeneland and the Spinaway S.-G1 at Saratoga.

QUIETSIDE is a daughter of Graded stakes winner Benner Island, who Anthony purchased at auction for $200,000 in 2015.
