Watch out.....

The DT stock has now hit it's 52 week low after that last comment.

Well Collegiate, 2YO Filly out of Saarland just put on a phucking clinic in the Belmont 2nd!!

You got any other 2yo advice that the fine members of DT should follow this summer?

Nice to see that a 400K yearling filly by Saarland can really run.

79 offerings from his crop through yearling sales - only two brought six figures - and that one was by far the most expensive.

I was wrong though - I didn't think Saarland would throw one horse worth a damn. This filly is obviously very nice.

I remember when Victory U.S.A (who cost a mere 525K) handily won her debut at Del Mar in near track record time - with Mike Smith pumping his fist and showboating before the wire. It was 6 lengths back to eventual two-year-old Grade 1 winning filly Hollywood Story in 2nd.

Victory USA's freshman sire at the time, Victory Gallop, now stands in Turkey.

One nice debut winner does not make a crop or sire - and this was BY FAR Saarland's most expensive yearling.
