I have my eye on a couple colts by him that will be in the future fortunes sale end of this month. The only problem is I have no idea how much to expect them to go for. I have tried to find current offspring of him for sale rn to see what they are priced at. Does anyone have any idea so I'm not surprised and/or disappointed when I cannot afford anyone ????

I would start my expectations at 3 times the stud fee. Then add or subtract from there depending on who/what their dam is and how they are physically. Although I will say I have seen horses go for less then what you would expect at sales and yes, even more then you would expect. All you can do is figure out what your max budget is, and bid to that point. My husband had 2 horses picked out from Fultons sale a couple weeks ago. He bid on both up to his max budget and didnt get either one bought. The closest to his budget went for $5,500 over his max. The other one went $12,000 over his budget. The last time he bought horses from a sale was the snaffle bit futurity sale. He had his max budget and what he picked out went for less and he ended up coming home with 3. LOL. You just never know which way a sale will swing. Just stick to your budget!!

I don't think you will be run over by bidders on the MP Jetter's ... there are several well known stallions get in the 102 consignments for bidders to hold their cash for one of them ...
There are a number of MP foals consigned by individual owners and A STREAK OF FLING and HAYDAY foals in the auction ...
The actual Triangle Fall sale is in Shawne on Thursday and Friday so you won't see a bunch of cutters jump in the bidding fray ... lol ..
Sale starts at 10am so go have your inspection tour and take notes well before it begins ... most already have radiographs done so for a fee you can take an inside look too ..
have fun .... click on the full catalogue ... it will do the all 102 ... so have your notebook ready ... you see more on the first read than you do trying to come back and find the one's you liked ... lol ...
With the James dispersal up front it should follow the catalogue numbers as the auction happens ...

We just listed our MP Jet To The Sun filly for sale on BHW. We were so impressed with this filly that we bred our mare back. This filly is huge, super athletic, and fast. She can run and she can turn. We chose MP Jet To The Sun because of his amazing female line. He is being bred to some of the top mares in the industry and we expect to see him rising to the top of the Leading Sires List.
