SIGHTSEEING

Postby da hossman » Mon Jul 23, 2012 4:35 pm

Schuylerville winner in his 1st crop - SO MANY WAYS - has another winner and good reports on other 2 year olds. With his pedigree Sightseeing could be the real deal...stranger things have happened.

A number of Sightseeing yearlings have caught my eye at the sales, actually I purchased a Sightseeing filly for a yearling pinhook and continue to think highly of her as an athlete and good physical.

Anybody else have a Sightseeing they like?

Yup. A leggy homebred colt born earlier this year. Can't wait.

I see that he has another winner out there too. But haven't been able to track down who or where.

SO MANY WAYS wins the G1 Spinaway!! Looks like the best filly in the East. SIGHTSEEING may be the real deal, although I would like to see another SW.

Somebody should tell Richland Hills that they need to upgrade their web site because there is sure to be more interest in Sightseeing now that So Many Ways is looking like an Eclipse contender.

I agree, Richland Hills should be promoting!!! However I also heard negotiations were underway for SIGHTSEEING to move (possibly to Paris, KY)....

Really! That would be something...but historically it makes some sense.

wow, don't think anyone has quoted Aristotle on the Board before! However your point is well made.

I see that they've announced his 2013 fee - $7500 A nice bump. I also see that he now has 6 winners out. Things are certainly headed in the right direction here.
