Knowing that moron, he probably thought it was a filly. Or maybe it was his wife's top pick. Or it fit a bucket perfectly. He is without question the most obnoxious guy in the game.

Pelling is buying quite a few.  Many of them are $50k and below

After I saw the price and then saw Anthony bought it I couldn’t help myself I had to watch the video. Same ol shi$, it’s really mind boggling that he thinks he got a steal, it didn’t have to look great for Burke to throw $30k and take a shot but he didn’t so there is. I way I would be rooting my horn like he does.  In fact if I liked the colt and the bud was stalling at $25k I’d quit bidding.  You are correct he is as obnoxious as they come, but how stupid are these people that keep believing this crap. Keep Sri king the kool aid.

Anything below the very top tier is weak. What used to be the middle market is very weak. There is a lot of value in the 25k to 50k market, even up to say 75k. A lot of horses selling for 100k now used to sell for 150k, even more. There are some smart buyers out there. Some of the commercial breeders are getting stung a bit. You simply can't sell a yearling for $25k and make money.

what a blood bath, indicative of how weak the game really is. Owners simply getting destroyed for too long and eventually say enough is enough.

the big owners with money only want the best and will pay for it , even if that does not lead to success on the track or financially, they are not in it to do "okay", they want champions, so they avoid most of the ones that are going for under $100k which creates a vacum and those horses sell for $50 k which is a decent deal for the buyers

as for the stable and Hannelore hanover foal( and others) ,he buys the ones that his  pigeons will recognize and buy up and pay the training bill and if amac gets lucky than so be it,  if not than move on

[NOTHING BUT TRUTHS]

harness racing is thriving though.

They'll paint a pretty picture on today's results, something like it was up over last year, but today's numbers were again not good. Today's average was under $17k. The average only tells you so much, and while it's more accurate on a day like today as opposed to day one, if you really want to see raw #'s, look at the median, and also take out the top few sellers (which distort the #'s). No breeder is making money selling $17k yearlings.
