DIGITAL NANNY - Bay Filly by Mitole out of Laughing Girl (City Zip)
Digital Nanny is a February‑born bay filly by Champion Sprinter Mitole, purchased out of the Hoppel LLC consignment at the 2026 OBS April Sale. She delivered one of the most complete athletic performances of the entire auction. Her official 1/4‑mile breeze was recorded in 20.4 seconds, and she powered out with a 45.4 half‑mile gallop‑out, placing her among the top twenty fillies in the sale by gallop‑out metrics. That blend of raw speed and sustained energy is exactly what Mitole’s best runners have shown on the racetrack. This filly was selected by veteran bloodstock agent Larry Zap, who purchased her for a price point similar to what he paid for Resolve, the filly who went on to become multiple graded‑stakes placed. Zap’s track record of identifying value and future black‑type performers makes his endorsement of this filly especially meaningful.
Pedigree Overview
Sire: Mitole (by Eskendereya) Mitole needs no introduction—Champion Male Sprinter, Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1) winner, and one of the most electric speed influences of his generation. According to the pedigree page: “Sire of 18 black‑type winners… including champion Shisospicy… Halina’s Forte (G2)… Booth (G3).” His offspring are known for: - Early speed - Strong hind‑end mechanics - Durability and competitive temperament - Commercial appeal at 2‑year‑old sales This filly’s under‑tack performance fits the profile perfectly.
Dam: Laughing Girl (by City Zip) Laughing Girl is an unraced daughter of City Zip, one of the most reliable sources of speed, toughness, and versatility in modern American pedigrees. She has already produced a winner: “Charles J… Winner at 3, placed at 4, 2025, $95,339.” City Zip mares have crossed well with speed‑oriented stallions, and Mitole × City Zip is a pattern that emphasizes: - Quick action - Efficient stride mechanics - Mental sharpness - Sprint/middle‑distance versatility.
Second Dam: Comedy Queen (Distorted Humor) Comedy Queen brings in Distorted Humor, a sire line known for class, intelligence, and graded‑stakes production. While lightly raced herself, she contributes a powerful genetic foundation.

This is a deep, international, black‑type family with: - Multiple graded winners - Multiple graded producers - European and American success - Longevity and class This filly is bred to be fast early, but her female family adds depth and long‑term upside.
