?.......aside from the big purse on offer......Oscar and others have a point.....many of these horses would not qualify for a National or 2yr old sale as they at an earlier time were not forward enough in size and temprament to be put through a sales ring.....breaking and schooling would definitely be an advantage and at least the astute would see some form of action in the little breeze up to warrant making a bid......I have always reckoned that one should not be looking for the obvious that all are after.....but the odd little gems that have rare potential......Pierre Jourdan was exactly that type of horse......now his half sibling by Kahal will be hyped to the hilt......better to have found the unexposed cheaply than to pay a bomb for the flops that follow.....:

.....another problem with the gallops is even if one is there.....one does not really get to really see and disect the movement as it happens in an instant and there are often distractions ......one has to rely on the dvd or TT when they flight them......these by now have been edited and doctored especially the last 200 which is converted to a fantastic slomo.......all horses look graceful in slow motion......now with thePVR one can at least slow down and speed up the clip and get the basic movement and avoid the really nasty dishing and over or under rotation of the hoof striking the surface.....

sadly a lot of these rtr graduares are being forced rushed call it what you want into trying to be ready for the 3mil race ..cos of this you will never see the best of them .my mentor in racing told me IF YOU RUSH A HORSE IT WILL MAKE YOU WAIT ...for me never a truer statement

From 202 lots there has been 41 individual winners and another 33 horses placed and many well bred horses about to make their debuts...
Wouldn`t mind a share in Nisas Love,Winter Star,Admirals Eye,Rainy Day,Sabre Tooth etc etc
I actually think this sale was a success...
