Fall makes sense as a horse will have mostly wrapped up a seasons worth of racing and you have a fair idea of where he stands, esp. for a 3yo coming 4.
Not sure the logistical details but fall makes sense to me.
People are always looking to get rid of horses before the winter season. Some outfits do like Zayat is doing on a smaller scale. A lot of the big trainers dont like to carry as many horses in the winter and many of these partnerships dissolve and need a place to liquidate in a public auction. I think it would work.
