| We have a Candy Ride filly, hip #358 and a Stormy Atlantic filly, hip # 634. Ian and Jean Carmichael have done wonders with these two and I hope they sell well as I just took the plunge and bought a horse on the track. Need the jing to help pay the bills for this adventure. |

| This will be my first time there, I will only get to see the first night since it's a very short weekend trip but I hope to get around to meet a lot of people at the grounds and see a lot of yearlings. I printed out the first night's hip numbers and I'll read through them when I'm flying out to Del Mar. I figure that was a better weekend to go look at stallions for next year than in October because I can see some yearlings and weanlings by the stallions I am interested in. I will NOT be buying anything so I'm not sure that I will be able to actually SIT anywhere at the sale but I will find somewhere to hang out. |

Tap, you can sit anywhere you want. The seats are "assigned" but really nobody pays any attention to that. Usually the pavillion is only about a third full anyway. Most of the "important people" gather out back.
Seating might be a little tighter than normal during the first two night sessions, but if you see a seat you want, just take it. Worst case, someone asks you to move--and you go take another empty seat. No big deal.
As for stallions, don't forget that many of them are away shuttling in Sept/Oct. |

I've got the appointments to see who I want to see and while I am there I might sneak peaks at the other one's just so they don't feel left. Kind of like how Quiet American HAS to come out last, I would not want any of the stallions at the farms I visit to feel left out either. |

Why does Quiet Am. have to come out last?
oooooh, a half to Better Talk Now by Afleet Alex. Where's the drooling icon.
I also "want" a Hard Spun and a Bernardini . . . Also need a "dreaming" icon. _________________ All shouting does is make you lose your voice.

He is the king, he wants to be included. I am not sure why last versus first but the minute he came out he just struck a regal pose and did not move a muscle.
I need to win the lottery  |

Well Tap, he deserves it. I love to see him in a pedigree. _________________ All shouting does is make you lose your voice.

Tappiano,
I take it you are a Fappiano fan....as am I. Mr. P's best son....by far. I love him in a pedigree as well. Especially in combo with Storm Cat and A.P. Indy. Any combo's you like? We have a Storm Cat granddaughter on the track now that we are thinking about taking to QA when her racing career ends. I would love to hear more detail about Quiet American's nature/habits/personality, if you wouldn't mind. Perhaps in the form of a PM so as not to bore the others on the forum.
Thanks |

Here are three pictures, two stallions, I hope you can see the difference, not just because one is cleaner but because of his "presence". The other one isn't too shabby either !
