‘TDN Rising Star’ Himika proved that her impressive first-out victory at Santa Anita in June was no fluke, followed up with an equally effortless victory when taking Del Mar’s GIII Sorrento Stakes Sunday.
Himika is out of Motivated Seller (Into Mischief), who was stakes placed for Klaravich Stables and trainer Chad Brown. The first foal out of that mare, Himika was offered by Klaravich at the OBSAPR Sale earlier this spring, and agent Donato Lanni extended to $900,000 to secure the filly on behalf of Susan Chu’s Boama Corp.
