Of course, the market was in a really bad spot last year but still these pinhookers are making some serious cash.
Hip 16. Sold for 150k last Sept at Kee....he fetched 800k today.
Hip 60. Sold for 60k last July...sold for 250k today.
Hip 163 Sold for 182k last Oct. at Timonium...she brought 335k today.
Hip 166. Sold for 170k at Kee Sept.....He brought 700k today.
Hip 184. Sold well at the Saratoga select sale in Aug for 250k....today he
brought 515k.
Hip 190. Sold really well at the most select yearling sale FT AUG for 250k.
Today M. Tabor paid 825k for him.
Hip 221. He sold for 117k as a yearling in July..Today he sold
for 360k.
Hip 218. This is the horse that everyone knew would be the sale topper. He sold for 200k at Kee Septemper. Being by Distorted Humor out of the great race mare and producer Tomisue's Delight, you would think he would have sold for at least a half million. Especially since his half brother Mr. Sidney won G1 just a few months before. Today the white Jessie Jackson shelled out 2.3 million. Not a bad profit turn in 5.5 months for a couple start up pinhookers.

They only sold about 35% of the horses how can pinhooking be good? What about all the people who paid 200k spent 35k getting the horse ready have 235k into the horse and the horse RNA at 175k? Unless more are selling you just cant look at the HR's without at least repping the K's..
That 1/2 to Mr Sidney must have looked like a frog to only bring 200k so they lucked out congrats.. Sometimes the frog becomes a prince
