FROM THE DESK OF... Bill Oppenheim

SUMMER REVIVAL Going into last year=s Keeneland September sale, the market looked shaky. Following $84-million in turnover in 2004, Fasig-Tipton saw receipts fall to $70-million at its two flagship summer yearling sales, Fasig Kentucky July and Saratoga. They were for different reasons: Fasig overloaded the catalogue in July, while Saratoga was sure to see a drop in aggregate, since it had been reduced from three days to two. But whatever the reasons, its two sales dropped $14-million, down 16 percent in gross and 13 percent in average. Next came Deauville, which had already been in a three-year decline which, by 2004, had seen its gross and average drop by 20 percent from its peak in 2001 (i35-million and i95,043, converted from the old French Franc) to i28-million and an i76,383 average in 2004. The 2005 edition of Deauville was a disaster. The gross dropped another 20 percent, to i22,842,000 (35 percent below its 2001 peak), while the average dipped to i70,067. The significance of this year=s recovery isn=t, there- fore, that the gross was up 30 percent and the average 16 percent in relation to 2005, but that, in fact, the gross was four percent higher than in 2004, the aver- age six percent higher, and both figures are the best achieved, in their respective categories, since 2001. Officials from the newly constituted sales company, now called Arqana, were right to play down their own role too much. The market was going to recover any- way, regardless of who owned the company this year. But all reports were that The Buzz Is Back at Deauville, and that definitely-Bfollowing the positive results at the two Fasig sales in America-Baugurs well for upcoming sales.
