Pais 6-5
BTW 8-5
Pillow 2-1
Phil 3-1
GBBob 5-1

Much to my dismay, I got to the end of the thread and this little gem was left untouched.

Nah, I just don't know what I have said, and no one is going to answer me.

What have I ever said that makes me so great?

Oh God, this won't stop.

This thread easily gets my vote for Thread of the Year.

Not redboarding. I have been following one under 40,000 from last year's OBS April sale before she entered her first race. I just don't post my sales lists because I have been told not to.

You can look up a post from last year about the best first crop sires at the sales last year before there babies started racing if you think that I am redboarding.

Glad to know we are basing this on a sample size of 1. Here I was getting worried it wouldn't be statistically significant.

I know most of the posts about kentuckyrosesinmay were written by kentuckyrosesinmay, and that is pretty annoying, but I for one would appreciate it if everyone (especially kentuckyrosesinmay) would stop writing about kentuckyrosesinmay.

I'll try again.

There are a lot more than that. The point is, you have to be able to find them. I'm not going to pull out the names.

that's more than a little surprising, considering the sire on this one.

any idea what the reserve was?

Yeah, but I really don't like to repeat stuff that I'm not sure is public info. I'm sorry.

There are quite a few horses in this price range from OBS April sales that went on to be good racehorses, and at least earned back their purchase price or better.

I didn't think that the Green Monkey's workout was great. I couldn't understand the hype. He crossfired all the way down the stretch in his workout. Big no-no.

Any idea when you will get around to analyzing the action of the Derby contenders this year vs. their two year old in training works?

There are actually quite a few that are RNAing, if that is proper.

Does the number seem unusually high? At one point in the 50's (Hip #'s) 6 of 7 RNA'd. 36 out of 119 to this point.

They will often RNA if the x-rays in the repository show something significant. Quite a few horses RNA at most sales.

Oversimplification should not be confused with either knowledge or cleverness. But hey, thanks for trying, and I doubt you need to be asked to keep playing the game.

in last year's sale...301 horses were cataloged, only 209 made it to the auction block, of those 40% RNA'd. The year before 32% RNA'd. 2YO sales have so many outs before the sale even begins that I fail to see their appeal.
