Buyers should know that.
Well I am a breeder and an owner and that's my philosophy.
I breed every single foal with the hope of making a good racehorse and then I sell the ones that turn out the best--from a sales perspective--because they're the ones that bring the most money. The ones I keep to race are the ones that buyers don't want.
Now, Jenny Craig may have a totally different way of doing things, I have no idea. But in this game, you have to have a whole lot of money to be able to afford to keep your best.
I suspect after viewing some of the horses offered yesterday that Jenny Craig is selling her best stuff in Kentucky though.
I went yesterday just to see what was happening. Lots of people there and some horses even sold but everyone there knew this was a cull sale. Today will be even worse unfortunately.
