Surely, sounds like a cool trip. I've never been to Ocala for a 2YO sale...

I go all of the time... wish I had the $$ to get one. LOL

It's cool to see some of the nicer ones go through the ring. Over the past couple of years I've seen quite a few future stakes winners and it's cool to have seen them as yearlings and two year olds.

There’s a gray Silver Charm colt in there that I want to see (hip #123)… his dam is a half sister to The Tin Man’s dam AND she was tested for a large heart and was one of ten mares measured in last 20 years by Dr. Fregin to have a heart that large.

I loved Silver Charm, so if this one looks anything like his Pops, it'll be the worth the hour drive.

I loved Silver Charm as well, I'm planning on going to the Hall of Fame induction this year for him.

What a battler he was. One of my recent favorites, too.

I'm a sucker for horses with mediocre pedigrees who run their eyeballs out!

Isn't it ironic that the horse I have as my avatar right now was the one that broke all our hearts in the Belmont.

I can't believe I just waded through this thread.

Here's my 2 cents: Even if you believe Sanders' training performance of Teufelsberg is "great," that doesn't make her a great trainer.
