she's a 1995 by Eskimo, and she won more than $150,000.

Here is a catalog page from 2006

Looks to be a honest hard knocking family

She was last sold at the Mountain Springs Arena Spring Mixed sale in Shartlesville, Pa. in late May. She was consigned by Connie Nesteruk, who owns a farm near Doylestown, Pa. Here is the result from Thoroughbred Times:

87 Lilly and Ice, m, b, by Eskimo— Honest Lilly, by Honest Pleasure (Turnofthecentury). ( , agent), R. N. Miller ..........$500.

R. N. Miller, her purchaser, is the sales manager at Mountain Springs. His phone number is 610-823-3545.

She has 64 starts 7 13 12 and raced from 1998 to 2003. She can likely produce some good foals with the right stallions. I do not understand why she sold so cheap.

She probably sold so cheap because a. even tho she ran out some money, her speed figures were pretty low, so Id assume she ran in lower level races, and b. her only foal to race couldnt win in 13 starts, and her other foals sold for $2,900 and $800, not to mention the lack of unrestricted blacktype on her page. Not much to recommend her.
