my experience with people selling weanlings has been that they either bought the mare in foal (and are trying to get out from under her price) or a sibling is currently running well (and will pad the price)...I agree with joel that this colt didn't look like a standout horse (though I didn't see it in person as he did) but people will be hot to get their hands on Smarty's babies this year.
