Not This Time kicked off the second week of the 2020 Keeneland September Yearling sale with a $320,000 colt to top the session.

Consigned by Stuart Morris, agent, hip No. 2739 went to Donato Lanni, who said the colt would go to Bob Baffert. 

“He is a neat horse, a cool dude,” Lanni said of the yearling. “He was one of the standouts today. And the sire helped. The sire has been on a roll and people believe in the sire. They are willing to pay extra for them. Not This Time is a horse that came under the radar. You never know who is going to make it, but it looks like he’s going to do well.”

Bred by Stelly Stables, the chestnut juvenile is colt is out of the More Than Ready mare Ready at Nine and is a half-brother to stakes-placed Drummer Boy.

Not This Time has produced 10 winners to date, leading all First-Crop sires. He has two stakes winners this month: Princess Noor in the Del Mar Debutante (G1) over the Labor Day weekend and Dirty Dangle in the Woodbine Cares S. on Sunday.
