A pair of yearlings by leading Texas stallion Too Much Bling brought $100,000 each to top the Texas Thoroughbred Association's summer yearling and mixed sale on Monday at Lone Star Park.

There were 59 yearlings sold for a total of $681,800 on Monday, for an average of $11,556, according to figures provided by the sale company. There were 31 yearlings that did not sell. The median was $4,500. 

At the corresponding auction a year ago, 63 yearlings sold for a total of $611,800, for an average of $9,711. There were 29 yearlings that did not sell and the median was $2,500. 

Jackson Durham purchased the first horse to reach the $100,000 level, the pictured Lullaby Bling,  who sold as Hip No. 14. The colt is out of the mare Soft Music and is a full brother to Bling On the Music, a multiple stakes winner who defeated male rivals by double digits in last year's $100,000 Gold Rush Futurity at Arapahoe Park. Lullaby Bling was consigned by Benchmark Training Center, agent. Durham said Lullaby Bling will be trained by his mother, Danele Durham, who said the goal is to debut the colt next season at Keeneland. 

Susan Moulton bought the second yearling to hit the $100,000 level, a filly that went as Hip No. 62. She is a full sister to Nubaldo Bling, a stakes winner of $140,845, and was consigned by Asmussen Horse Center as agent. Last month, the Moulton-owned Janae won a division of the Texas Thoroughbred Futurity at Lone Star Park. The winning trainer was Brandon Jenkins.
