AI think it has held up a lot better than we imagined. Considering the mess the whole world is in, the finan- cial crisis and everything else, I think it has held up remarkably. And every time you go to buy a nice horse, on the whole, you are going to pay for it. The exchange rate has helped against the euro, but it has not helped a lot against sterling. So for the English people, it is roughly the same as last year. But for the Euro people, it is obviously a hell of a cycle.@ --Adrian Nicoll, BBA Ireland

AI think the sale has held up very well. There were some terrific opportunities. I know many buyers were pleased to be able to buy lovely horses. There were a lot of pretty nice horses going for not a whole lot of money.@ --Antony Thompson, Widden Stud
