Aside from the big names that are buying horses, the amazing acquisition of stock going on is by Gary & Mary West who through the first 7 days have bought 22 head for $5.1MM, an average purchase of $235k. (And ALL are colts).. Only JJ Crupi and John Ferguson have spent more.

Ben is just camped out signing tickets.

Biggest purchase so far was $500k for a Tiznow x Island Bound (Speightstown).

I looked through the pedigrees and nothing jumps out as to what they are "collecting"... a good bit of Unbridled's Song and Harlan's Holiday and they don't make those anymore.

Looks like maybe looking for good 2 turn horses based on the pedigrees? Have a Tapizar, couple of Super Savers, couple of Flatter's, a Giants Causeway?

It's really interesting.

pinhooking ventures is my guess. the sport looks like it's on the upswing, and more being bred. so, expect to see some of these back at an auction next year.
