Chincoteague pony history was made this morning!

The auction record for highest-selling foal was broken! This little filly has quite the pedigree—her dam, WH Wildfire, was a descendant of Misty herself, and her sire is the island’s most popular pony, Surfer’s Riptide.

Earlier this year, saltwater cowboys discovered the filly’s mother gravely ill, and the mare tragically died despite all attempts to save her. The orphaned foal was brought to the Leonard family’s farm and was nursed by one of their mares.

The Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company (who owns and manages the wild ponies) decided to keep her as a buyback, a foal who stays wild on the island. Buybacks are auctioned off, but instead of buying the pony, the winning bidder wins the rights to name the pony. “Buying” a buyback is basically making a big donation to the fire company.

There are now several groups of pony fanatics who pool their money to “buy” buybacks every year, and one such group won the auction with a hefty $50,500 donation to the fire company. They named the pony Wildfire's Phoenix.

Phoenix makes a lovely addition to the wild herd!
