From what I saw, there were a fair number of no sales (R.N.A.,  or what ever you want to call it for ones the didn't sell.)  For instance numbers :
13
19  (MAY have sold for 10K as after they passed him out, the auctioneer asked the ring man to see if his "guy" wanted the horse for 10K.)
22
24
25

That could be true, it was hard to tell sometimes because they didn't always announce that the reserve wasn't met or flash it up on the board. What I posted are just rough results, by no means are they official or 100% accurate.

Oh, I figured!  There could have also been more than those above.  Theones above are the ones I saw where they said they were passed out.  THere are likely more as I stopped watching at #50.  And didn't start writing them down until #7.

Does anyone know what the Genuine Six filly owned by Larry Coates went for?  I'm sorry I don't know her number.
And congratulations to the new owners of the full brother to Firewaterontherocks.  He is an awesome colt.

 I'm the owner of the colt that would not come into the ring....he got scared period. The guy (Ted) got knocked down not Kicked. He is a very nice colt & Jennifer Driver bought him...yes..she saw everything & several other nice offers were made on him before he even got got back to the stall.  There were a lot very nice horses in the sale.  Everybody seemed happy.  Happy Day everybody.
 Hip # 20 Famous LaJolla was sold for $5,200.

He was a beautiful individual. Wish I had been at the sale. My husband has purchased several "spooked from the ring" on the backside and all three were winners!

GLP - 2014-11-17 10:54 AM Glad you got him sold. Thise sales are tension packed and it's understandable that a young one would act scared.
 Thank you...people are quick to judge....especially when they have NEVER been in that circumstance with yearlings.  It happens.

Absolutely---we watched most of it, had chores to do, but I thought it was a quality run sale. Good job to all involved.

 I'm the owner of the colt that would not come into the ring....he got scared period. The guy (Ted) got knocked down not Kicked. He is a very nice colt & Jennifer Driver bought him...yes..she saw everything & several other nice offers were made on him before he even got got back to the stall.  There were a lot very nice horses in the sale.  Everybody seemed happy.  Happy Day everybody.

 Hip # 20 Famous LaJolla was sold for $5,200.  

Thanks for the explanation.  Yes when babies get scared their only defense if protection .  Sounds like it ended well

That is absolutely normal.
I would not think twice about it.
I used to fit sale horses both TB, Quarter and Cutting horses.
It happens, they are babies.
Glad he got a good home.

Watched the sale online and it looked like a lot of the young horses found the entrance to the sales ring scary. I loved your Firewater Ta Fame you sold.

Tyler Rivette, he is the manager of Harrison Ranch, young kid, around 20. He is a good hand, quiet rider, I expect him to do well.

A- they put him in the hands of the highest bidder. That horse will want for nothing. He will have a fantastic home.
B- Tyler is that good. He's young but he's that good. The horses the ranch has now are often sold to South America as roping horses so the success he's had qualifying horses for AQHA World in the short time he's been there says something. You put him on horses that are bred to be barrel horses and he will make them shine. I trust him to ride any of my horses. Shoot I ask him for advice all the time. He's got light hands and a good seat and he knows what to do :)

Everybody get your panties out of a twist. I wasnt bad mouthing the kids riding. Hell I dont even know him and google doesnt show anything on him as far as barrel racing goes.  Im just saying that if I spent 87K on a potential futurity colt, I would have him with someone that has a PROVEN futurity record.  Yes I understand that they paid for him and they can do whatever they want to with him, I was just making a statment. Not attacking anyones credentials.

 Proven doesn't mean it's in the best interest of the horse. Sounds like the horse is in very capable hands.

DunIt - 2014-11-19 7:03 AM Everybody get your panties out of a twist. I wasnt bad mouthing the kids riding. Hell I dont even know him and google doesnt show anything on him as far as barrel racing goes.  Im just saying that if I spent 87K on a potential futurity colt, I would have him with someone that has a PROVEN futurity record.  Yes I understand that they paid for him and they can do whatever they want to with him, I was just making a statment. Not attacking anyones credentials.  
 Proven doesn't mean it's in the best interest of the horse. Sounds like the horse is in very capable hands.
^^^^^^^^^^This.  Just common sense. 
^^^^ THIS................there are a LOT of "proven" futurity trainers that I would not let touch MY horse with a 10' pole..... 

^^^ Thanks for taking the words right out of my mouth!! You see all their success and then personally watch them and you are in utter disbelief!

While I agree with your post about "proven" futurity trainers most of you have never seen this kid ride or "train" a horse. I don't know him personally but have seen him ride. Yes he works for Harrison Ranch but has not been there that long. They are known for roping and cow horses. Their previous trainer showed some in barrels and did pretty good but they are not known for barrel horses. I am very excited to see that they purchased this colt and I actually am surprised that he is going to be started by someone with so little experience. No I am not bad mouthing him just surprised by their decision. Yes it is THEIR decision but I would love to see them campaign and get that colt in more experienced hands. Of course, I have seen first timers win some of the big futurities. Good luck to Harrison Ranches and hope this colt has a very bright future. I would love to see them really get into the barrel horse business. Especially since they are so close.

 Why doesn't everybody just give Tyler the benefit of the doubt?  He is quite capable of doing this.  Don't be so quick to judge.

 Training a rope horse that can earn AQHA points isn't a simple act of just roping one and turning it off. They have each step figured out to a science and what looks good. Why do you think JD Yates and Jay Wadhams pick showing AQHA over rodeoing? They make more money being successful at AQHA. Likewise they dont take their show horses to the NFR when it's all about being fast. Training a barrel horse is easy if you have common sense and horsemanship. Judging by your comment, you don't seem to want to give this kid much credit for what he has done. I'd never bet against a successful AQHA show person not being able to turn out a great barrel horse if they decide to. No, I don't know this guy that will be training the horse. But he obviously has talent to be in the position he is and to be trusted with high caliber horses.

Knowing that this purchase is a "big deal" in the barrel community I would imagine if this young man needs any help they will seek someone special out.  I keep posting on this and I guess I need to quit, as I see it it really is none of our business anyway.

Tyler has worked for the Harrison's for approximately 2 years.  Jesse and his daughter Becky, the managers prior to Tyler trained the roping horses.  Tyler is a great, talented young adult,  he will make decisions in the best interest of this horse's career.  Tyler may lack futurity experience, but he can ride and he has a great head on his shoulders and will seek advice/help if or when it is needed.  He has trained some great young horses, I have watched him for years, he has the ability to campaign this horse.  On a side note, he may 22, not 20, still a young kid with a great opportunity and future ahead of him.  I am so happy for him and I wish Tyler all the best of luck.

 Tyler runs at Wrapn3 races and his horse are always solid and work great......he seems to have a really quiet smooth style and his horses look like a million bucks. I would let him ride one of mine.  He doesnt man handle one and it looks like anyone could ride behind him.  He also has a great mentor that he rides with so if this horse has ability I am sure it will get its chance to shine.

Tyler does have an "in" with a very good hand he used to work for prior to going to Harrison Ranch.. I've spoken with him and he's very capable of making decisions with this new colt.. Granted he doesnt have a futurity resume but once nobody knew that little blonde haired girl on that bay geld from New Mexico either... I look forward to seeing Bugatti shine and hope he walks tall in those shoes like his big brother!
