Does overhyped really mean overbet?

A few Street Cry's that sold dirt cheap in Aussie land gave him a run for his money for the blacksheep title.

There have been a few other blacksheeps that have done ok though.

Da Hoss was actually the cheapest of 23 Gone West yearlings to sell at auction when he was a yearling.

City Zip was the 30th most expensive of 31 Carson City yearlings to sell that year.

Da Hoss selling for 6K and City Zip for 9K.

There might be more - I just don't remember them.

I should have looked past the circled x. I saw Boundary and figured he excelled on an off track.

Very nice auction info. Tomcito is an unknown. I could assume that he won't be part of the pace, won't get in Big Brown's way. Most foreign horses aren't conditioned for speed- by US standards.
