they got more than twice that in '06, and bought her back. thought she'd go for more than that, even with the current economic conditions.

wonder what reserve they set on azeri.

I am watching the sale, and while I don't know about past January sales, there is alot of horses going through for under 10k, can't be a good sign for the sale, but a great sign for people that are buying

If you afford to buy, it's a great time to be in the market. Prices are very low IMO and there are tons of puts. My guess is that folks would rather hold their stock and hope for an improvement. I don't have the book so I'm not sure what the bulk of the "outs" are, mares, babies or racing age. My guess is that some are opting to wait out the market with yearlings.

How about those 2 adorable little babies that went through with their moms?

Linny, in regards to those babies, is that because they just foaled in 2009 and were early? I have never seen that
