GLOBAL RECESSION LOOMS!!!
How do ABC members think this will affect the RTR sale?

What recession? this only a concern for people with big money, stocks and shares etc, for the normal man in the street life goes on, I am glad my portfolio has not dropped 20 million in the last week, I would not sleep.

Back to the question, I think the sales will be fine, and lots of interest shown.

imvho

For once you are wrong Scotia. Eventually this will hit every single one of us.The guys with the big bucks will have to off load and that means peoples jobs food prices etc etc, It will filter through ..its already beginning in the US and UK.

Sale will take a hit, just like the 2 y/o sale. This sale has increased it's profile though.

Hi Mori, I was only joking, I have started drinking Bells and not JWB.

Scotia Trust me the guys with the stocks and shares set the benchmark for every sale.Even the arabs are hurting with the oil price having dived.
My opinion this sale could be full of bargains and yes there will still be prices for the very top horses.Remember all you need is 2 bidders wanting the same lot.

O.K. I will get serious!
