from the bloodhorse...
John Fort, the president of Peachtree Racing Stable....
“The market seems really down,” Fort said. “Just sitting around watching horses sell, I see a lot of $20,000, $30,000, $40,000 horses. I’ve always felt like if you could afford to own a racehorse, you should be immune to little glitches in the economy. People who are sort of on the edge of an economy that might be fluctuating up or down shouldn’t be putting their money in racehorses.”

Maybe Fort should organize a separate sale for decent pedigrees, that isn't watered down with all these $20,000 dollar pedigrees?
