LB, I'm selling 3176, which is partly why I feel so nervous... there just seems to be no depth in the market (but that could just be a book 1 syndrome). We wanted her to be placed in book 3, but her foal date didn't really help.

Shamradal and his full brother are both out of Helsinki, a full sister to Street Cry, Helen Street is their second dam. I do agree that something must have really been wrong with him, it makes you wonder why they even kept him in the sale.

Hi all,

Hip #1231 is a half brother to my filly - he sells on Saturday. Would love it if some would be kind enough to report how he looks, etc. He's a gray colt by Maria's Mon. Thanks in advance.

Many of the Mr. Greeleys earlier sold well for their stud fee, but in comparison to his current fee. There might be a slight market correction on it.

I've seen some nice colts go for around the 400k mark.

Fillies seems to be bringing a little more than them if they have the right physicals.

It's a stronger sale than what they're spinning it.

#1231 is a bay filly by Limehouse, and sells on Thursday. Do you want to try again with the hip #?

Mr. greeley to me is the biggest mystery in the breeding industry.

First and foremost, he is not a 6 figure stallion on paper. he's just not. I don't think he has sired a millionare yet.

BUT looking at the sales, I see WHY they sale. Mr Greeley for my money throws some of the prettiest babies i've ever laid eyes on. There was one filly that sold on book 1 by mr. Greeley, I forget which hip number, that I said to myself that makes no sense. and of course she was close to a million dollars.

it's good to see some of the tiznow's getting some love as well. There was a tiznow that was I want to say a half to action this day that sold today that was very nice looking and sold pretty well.
