Pedigree obviously had a lot to do with it ... but I would think the nations highest priced yearling would have to look great.
That same year Zensational sold for just $20K as a yearling - and he's by UBS (Dunkirk's sire) out of a multiple stakes winning mare from a great Claibourne family.
I don't disagree that he probably looked good, but you've also got so many other things going on behind the scenes that yearling prices are just unreliable.
