Mood Swings, you beat me this time!
Do you have any in the sale?

That format is the most annoying thing ever. How every sale company doesn't just cruise over to the Keeneland site and blatantly copy how they have their stuff setup is beyond me. I mean this stuff isn't rocket science... Get some pimply faced kid, 2 or 3 super big gulps from 7-11 give him a laptop and ta-da a website update that doesn't get you mocked on internet forums....Surely there must be some slot money available to throw at this!

Haha, it gave me great pleasure to do so
I have one mare, however I'm prepared to not only bring her home (if need be) but several others to keep her company, lol.
There are a lot of quality offerings this year. Did you see there are two G.2 winners (both are G.1 placed) and one of them has over $1,000,000 in earnings?! I am quite certain that Ontario has Never offered such a mare.
Apparently they are unable to offer the practical catalogue format - something to do with pdfs? Seems silly to me but I know very little about computers.
I've read and reread the catalogue a few times

Yearlings?
Anyone have any back story on any of the yearlings on offer?
Anyone have any luck buying yearlings out of this sale?
On paper, a few look like they might be worth a look, though they're usually culls, if you could find one being sold for connections reasons vs horse reasons, perhaps there's a bargain to be found....They sure go for peanuts...

I don't know any stories on any particular horses, but have shopped here and sold here in the past with good success. We had to use up $3000 in credits won in FE once. The two animals we ended up with both turned out great. One was a beautiful filly worth ten times that, but her owner just needed his numbers down. I would go early and see what you can learn. It is hard to give away a horse right now, so there will be some major steals as always.
The Mixed Sale was very disappointing. The Broodmare results were just plain terrible. Of the 96 offered for sale, 50% (48 horses) did not sell. Of the 48 that did not sell, 66% (32 horses) could not even get a bid. The average dropped from $6,380 in 2007 to $3,363 this year. The median dropped from $4,200 last year to just $1,700. Many breeders are living in "the house of pain"!!!

Can someone please post the hip by hip results? I'm on my blackberry on vacation without my laptop and for some reason the results link on the sales site won't show up for me but the catalog will, oddly enough.
I'm curious to see if a client bought any of the ones I recommended to her and her husband. Thanks.

Unfortunately we never made it to the sale.
What will happen to these mares that did not sale?
Is there a way of getting in touch with a few of the breeders to see if they will sale them outside the sale
We watched on the live webcast and there was a few 3yr olds that did not sell either.
We were heading down with a trailer in tow hoping to come back with a few.

Horses that don't sell remain the property of the owner who consigned them.
Here are the sales results listing consigner, buyer and price. Any that RNA'd would be taken home or sold back in the barn after the sale.

You would have to google various stables or call the CTHS office and ask if they would give you contact info.
