Copper Bullet, who had a very good OBS March 2yo sale, picked up right where he left off on Wednesday at the OBS Spring 2-year-olds in Training sale when the sire’s first lot to walk into the ring tallied a winning bid of $260,000.

Consigned by Envision Equine, agent, hip No. 553 sold to Pin Oak Stud.

The chestnut colt had worked a furlong in a quick 10 seconds flat at the Under Tack Show.

The colt is out of the stakes winner It’s High Time, whose dam My Rolex is a sister to Vosburgh S. (G1) winner Black Seventeen.

Copper Bullet, winner of the Saratoga Special S. (G2), stands for $7,500 S&N. To date, his 2-year-olds have averaged $113,888 at auction, more than 15 times his stud fee.
