I own a 3/4 to hip number 6 and she is a real nice looking mare. Would bet this mare is too. I thought the sale was Sunday-Monday?

Yup, you're right, Sunday-Monday. I was looking at the wrong calendar.

Half interested in 480. What do you think he'll bring if correct? See link.

Well he RNA'd at KEENOV priced at $18K. There's not much page so I think he'd have to be a Real Looker with no issues to go above stud fee at this upcoming sale. February F-T seems like a bit of a rummage sale.

If I can throw in a blatent plug for my horse, Hip #431 who sells on Monday:
http://www.fasigtipton.com/catalogs/2008/0210/431.pdf
In the new "TrueNicks" ratings, he gets an A++ (148.70) which is higher than any of the horses at Keeneland January (per the TrueNicks website's archives of their daily top ten TrueNicks for Keeneland).
The catalog doesn't say it but it will be announced that he is a fully-registered Maryland-bred as well as fully nominated to the Maryland Million.

Thanks Madelyn, can't imagine they'll let him go for less unless they have to sell. I thought he looked like a $6000 and under type of a horse.

You might be surprised. They found out at Keeneland that nobody wanted to pay 18K for him--and they paid commissions and fees to learn that lesson. Sometimes sellers get pretty realistic after that happens.

Does anyone know what time the sale starts? The website says 10:00am but the catalog states 11:00am. I hate to be late. Thanks in advance.

Yep, brought him home. In hindsight, I should have kept him in the mid-Atlantic market.
Does anyone have any farms in Delaware that board/prep yearlings? I would like to get the colt Delaware-certified before the fall yearling sales.

Merse,
Sorry to see your colt did not sell in Kentucky. Candyland Farm in Delaware might be able to board/prep him for you for the fall sale. They certainly do well at Timonium with their consignment.
