Northern CA Yearling Sale

Postby docjocoy » Thu Aug 13, 2009 6:30 am

Anyone have any info on the buzz from the results of the NCA yearling sale? Just looking at the individual hips that sold the sale didn't look too bad. But it's hard to get a larger picture since I am just using my Blackberry at the moment. I know last year the sale was a bloodbath. Were there some positive signs?

Decided not to go but heard the sale in general was better. My trainer raised his hand a few times but bought nothing. I heard buy backs were down..

No alot of positive signs. Alot of horses there were sold for a rock bottom price. Have you seen the ctba.com report yet.
Our trainer went down there and he was impressed with the Tannersmyman yearlings .
Im surprised the Flame Throwers went so high. And what was really interesting the Tapit filly- her condition wasnt that great and for 19000 its was too steep by looking at her.
