The two AP Indy fillies out of young stakes winning mares selling for 65K and *90k (this was a public buyback of sorts as was bought by one of the breeders on a probable foal share deal) early in sale sale (hips 7 & 10) should have been enough to put everyone on notice. It is an extreme buyers market. The barns have been dead the entire sale. I looked at my entire list of book 1 horses in 3 hours Sat am simply because there was rarely anyone else in front of me. We went to the Eaton consignment after lunch today to finish up Wednsedays horses and there was literally no one else there. At 1:15 on Monday, there was virtually no one at one of the biggest outfits there. That says a lot. I know that the pinhookers are very weak this year (the vast majority of the missing FL vets work for pinhookers) but outside of the usual players there was no activity. A lot of the horses today were bought by foreign outfits. Even guys like Mike Ryan who buy a lot of horses were not very active.

Well, if it turns to complete disaster, at least local folks can take them home, no hay shortage this winter.

Some can but a great deal of them cant afford to keep them. These are yearlings that need to be broke and go into training, not mares who can be kicked out in a field.

All the sales are open to the public. Definitely will be some DT'ers there on Saturday- I probably will not be because I have to go to Cincinnati/Turfway but several others should be. If you've never been I'd recommend it, it's a lot of fun.

I suggest that the penned up demand for horses will be realized in the coming 2 year old sales of '10. The money is out there it just seems to be resting. Not one million dollar horse is something I didn't think was possible in 2009. That is why it's called a market.. I guess!

Everyone was so pumped about the Saratoga sale..That proved as phony as 13 dollar bill.

Day 2 will be better then day 1.. Last licks on a few Storm Cat's that could fight for breeding bucks if successful. Who would be surprised to see Live Oak buy hip 325. Mr Mott could certainly work with that page.

I like the looks of hips 280, 282, and 287.
The 301 that is a half to Midnite Lute probaly will bring some coin.
