Location: Wherever the Army sends my husband | I watched the webcast to see what two CF fillies would go for. I was shocked at how little they brought. In fact I'm heartbroken that I didn't go or set up a phone bid. I just assumed there was no way I could afford them and am kicking myself now! |

Location: MD | I watched. I thought that there were some good deals to be had on horses who had solid, but less trendy pedigrees. I felt like the higher end horses sold well, but a few could have sold better. If I'm being completely honest, there were also a few consignors who I would not be inviting back, were I in charge. Just not quite fitted properly, or exposed enough before being demo'ed and it brought the whole vibe down a bit. |

Location: Desert Land | I consigned one of my own...a son of Chasin Firewater, and took 2 horses for friends. I really think a lot of my colt. ..you can see him below. He looks great, showed well and has been handled a ton. I turned down 2x what he brought last night previously. I don't know why they weren't bidding. He did go to a great home, so I'm happy about that. The DTF stud looks way better in person than his pics on the ad. I had only had him like 10 days when we took those. So he was not at all conditioned. He PO'd at 14500 and we sold him back at the stall. His testicles haven't descended yet and some were worried about it. The vet on site was not worried about it only being a yearling. D&D put on a good sale, my complaint is them running the race at the same time as the sale. I had several told me they couldn't bid because they were up for their runs. |

Thanks, I had plans to attend and had a few high on my list. Looking to make a band of mares. A little thing called work got in the way. |

I had experience with 3 yearling stallions purchased in the fall with one un-decended testicle and none came down by 2 1/2-3 yrs. So I see the hesitation there. Also raised 2 that were full brothers and were not decended as long yearlings so we just did the surgery. I'm glad you were able to sell at the stall later. I heard the sale was awful. One from my stallion sold as a yearling for 1/4 what I get for them as weanlings. I wish I needed her as she was out of my favorite mare.

| We were there...very nice horses sold for very low dollar...
We bid on one but didn't end up with her. Someone wanted her just a little bit more than I did I guess. |

Can't remember for sure but I think sorrel. It was hip #41. Your Darkelly was nice. That was one of the ones I wished I had gone to look at. |
