Doug,

So what is the best way to 'follow' these horses since none of them have names yet? I'm sure you have a process to make sure you dont miss any of them without having to go through entries every single day for multiple tracks.

stopped at the sale today for lunch.. #248 went for $410,000 and looked amazing. a Discreet Cat.

I do produce record searches on their dam -- and as soon as the foal has their first published workout they get named.

Once named, put them in stable mail.

If you want to see what a real sensational under-tack video looks like, watch this work by Tempted To Tapit's sister Dance Card two years ago:

http://www.fasigtipton.com/fasig-tip...78b885eebc01b7


She was hip #64 at the sale and went 9.80 unblinkered. Hip #63 at this same sale was Union Rags who had the joint 2nd fastest unblinkered 1/8th of the sale at 10.20 -- you can watch Union Rags work in the link above by clicking the previous button after Dance Cards work.

Dance Card took forever to get to the races (a terrible sign with these kind of horses) she's 5-4-1-0 lifetime and won the Grade 1 Gazelle last time out even though she drifted out very badly again.

I raved about Dance Cards work in the thread for that sale. It was the kind you see only once every two or three years. She would have been incredible if not for losing her entire 2yo season and the first half of her 3yo season to physical issues.

Speaking of Fasig there is some talk going around that this could be the last year for that sale. I believe there is only a 130 something cataloged, then after scratches and more scratches after the breeze show they will be lucky to have 60 to 70 to go through the sales ring.

Kauai Katie and your guys horse Northern Lion shared the bullet at that sale last year.

How's Northern Lion doing? He had that nice 5+ length maiden win at GP when he was finally allowed to be on the front end ... and I believe he was entered in the Pasco, but scratched and no races since.

Hey Stranger! We missed you in Tampa this meet. Are you heading to GP for the FL Derby?

I initially thought that race was more visually impressive than it actually was considering the stranglehold Albarado had O T B Bob under which allowed the soft fractions for NL.

But then he ran an ok 4th as a maiden in the Pasco, and since, the race has produced two next out MSW winners, Finn's Quest and Do the Roar, and also Nevada albeit on the drop to MCL 25... so perhaps the race was better than originally thought.

Hard to say any Grand Slam colt that sells for $210,000 is going to be a bargain, but that horse is exactly what I'm looking for.

I liked him as well.
I really look forward to following this sale going forward.
the Flatter colt (hip 143) I thought was the work of the sale, even though I knew 333 would be the topper.

The value of the sale I thought, was Hip 26.
I look forward to see her debut on the turf or poly at hopefully SAR or KEE later this year.

He had a little set back after the GP race but he is doing fine now. We have Stalls this Spring at Keeneland, Churchill and Woodbine just not sure where he's going to be yet.
