At the Barrett's Sale, he had one that sold for $450,000 and at the Ocala March sale, he had one that sold for $400,000.

When they're selling that good at the 2 year old sales, the price of his yearlings will go way up next year.

There is no direct correlation from 2 year old sales the year before and the following years yearling sales. There is a correlation between horses running well and the value of same stallion offspring rising.

I agree with Canon. They better start running. Also, if he moved to KY in 2005 meant those weren't born until 2006 and would be yearlings now. So, I think his 2007 two year olds are probably mostly from Maryland mares.
