Well, then answer the question with a more appropriate response instead of telling me how wrong that I am.

thanks...that number of RNA to Hip #'s didn't include the outs...there were 34 of those

Diarrhea of the mouth does not imply knowledge, only a need to babble, and if I feel I have something to add on an issue, that isn't self-evident and/or obvious, I will do so.

the one horse that I was interested in was an out....he was a VERY nice yearling by Mr. Greeley.

Actually you're very wrong, if the x-rays show something significant then the reserve will be much LOWER than what it hypothetically should be based on the breeding (and work, in the case of a 2YO sale).

But I didn't need to tell you that, you already knew it.

By the time they hit the track, we will be $80k deep on these guys, which means even with statebred incentives (which, of course, was part of the "where do you spend" GBBob is referring to) we have maybe a 15% chance of recouping our investment.

Exactly

Now where do I sign

You don't buy horses to make money you buy race horses because you have made money

Even if the reserve is lowered, some still RNA because of the x-rays. I'm only speaking for the two-year-old sales.

I can be on target when necessary.. This young lady thinks that she can read tea leaves or predict a dice roll.. People who have real knowledge pull their fn hair out trying to figure out why a Happy Ticket(La) can run faster then Phipps filly. But she all of a sudden can spot a winner from 1 furlong work. whatever.

Honestly DrugS is the only person I have come across that does the due diligence to give a morse of credence to and he is in love with a sox. So how smart can he really be.

Delusional? Because I disagree with a trainer and someone else about horses' movement...well, I don't know what she does...foaling and prepping yearlings or something?
