Saratoga Select: Oh My!

Omi's GIANT'S CAUSEWAY yearling, Half to BRUSHED BAYOU. I hear she is nice, toes in a bit left front, but not bad, big, long, all the right stuff. Like seeing BRUSHED BAYOU'S name on the page, in CAPs, black type. Really interested in seeing how this filly looks.

Dreamin'! :wink:

Assuming she looks good and vets, I think 160 will be the top-priced filly, if not the sale topper.

I think the sales topper will be either hip 79 if he looks like his dam... she was one of the best looking yearlings I have ever seen. Indy over Deputy Minister... Rags will be fresh in people's mind, and this family behind the colt can rival that of Best in Show.

The other possible is hip 86, an Unbridled's Song colt out of champion Riboletta. I believe this is the first foal at auction for her. If he looks the part, he could be a big attention bringer. Rib was one talented mare.

Why wouldnt 159 bring a ton. Her half bro sold for 600 as a yearling, shes incredible looking, and she has a half sis whos sure to be a graded stake winner in Brantley.

Just throwing out a few that I'll be interested in seeing how they sell, for various reasons.....

9--Indian Charlie filly out of a Mr. P half sister to Better Than Honour

11--Awesome Again colt out of Gone to Venus, who hails from a lovely female family

28--filly by Giant's Causeway out of Jewel Princess...minor SW One Nice Cat has been the best of Jewel Princess's foals so far, but hope springs eternal

106--FuPeg colt out of Maria's Mon half sister to Roman Ruler and El Corredor

110--Speightstown filly out of the dam of G1 winners Wild Heart Dancing and Man From Wicklow

124--Grand Slam colt out of Topicount, always liked her in her racing days, tough tough mare

198--Unbridled's Song colt out of the dam of Kona Gold

There are others, but those are the ones I'm most curious about. There are half siblings to Happy Ticket, Yonaguska, Spun Sugar, Songster, D'Wildcat, Diplomat Lady, Pico Central and Teuflesberg.

Hip 123, a Strong Hope colt is one to watch not a huge pedigree but looks like the real deal. He'll go for 500k+

Got out-bid all night long for 2 nights straight. Good ones sell themselves I guess, and I'm not in the business of chasing. Colts represented much better than the fillys.

Hoby did however, get this strappin' fella for me, sunday silence. On to Keeneland!

I agree on the filly observation. We only liked one, and when we vetted her, she was nothing short of a disaster.

I didn't attend. We sent an agent. We were only interested in one so there was no point in making the trip.

She fared better than her brother and was, I think, the top-priced filly.

Cool. Good luck with the pinhook. You should post some pics of him when you get some.
