The tone was set by the very first animal into the ring, who was valued at less than half either of the record-breakers. At 425,000gns, even so, she made a sum that beat anything else achieved the previous day-and would only be matched once during a day of very solid trade. In the opening session, despite those two spectacular sales, the median had been unchanged on last year at 55,000gns. Yesterday, it advanced by 13% from 57,500gns to 65,000gns. The average moved forward 6%, too, from 78,592gns to 83,239gns. Overall, a very similar volume of traffic (240 offered, compared with 247) saw session turnover creep up 3% to 17,230,500gns from 16,661,500gns-with the clearance rate holding firm at a very healthy 86%.

    TUESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 2019 BAFFERT HOPING EIGHT IS VERACITY BRINGS PROVEN TRACK RECORD TO FASIG NOVEMBER By Bill Finley GREAT FOR MCKINZIE IN When attacking the fall mixed sales, the key to future success lies in the ability to properly measure risk versus reward. That=s BREEDERS= CUP CLASSIC 36 why the eight-year-old mare Veracity (Distorted Humor), in foal to Justify, figures to bring a healthy sum at the Fasig-Tipton November Night of the Stars Nov. 5. The risk is minimal and the rewards are all but guaranteed. Veracity has had two foals that have been put up for auction, both fillies by Medaglia d=Oro. This year, her yearling sold for $900,000 at the Saratoga Sale and was purchased by Claiborne Farm. In 2018, Lael Stable spent $1 million on her first yearling, also purchased at Saratoga.

    COMPILED SPECIFICALLY FOR Frankel (GB) STALLION AFFINITY REPORT A comprehensive stallion analysis with all active broodmare sires Copyright © 2020 The Jockey Club Information Systems, Inc. STALLION AFFINITY REPORT TrueNicks: An Explanation Nicks in History Compatibilities between stallions from one sire line with mares of another sire line has helped shape the breed since the Eclipse/Herod cross of the late 18th century. These successful crosses, called nicks, have impacted Thoroughbred development through such examples as Hermit/Stockwell, Lexington/Glencoe, Bend Or/Macaroni, and Phalaris/Chaucer. In the modern era, the prolific Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer cross has produced outstanding racehorses and sires such as Kingmambo, Distorted Humor, and Elusive Quality. Fast-Forward to the 21st Century Computer databases have made it possible to measure and rate nicks, giving rise to a commercial market for such statistics. The first nick ratings offered to the public, though popular, were compromised by incomplete data and yielded results based on hypothetical rather than actual opportunity. This statistical gap was the impetus behind the development of TrueNicks. A Statistically Valid Approach Unlike other ratings that are calculated based on hypothetical opportunity within a limited group of horses, TrueNicks references the international database of The Jockey Club—the world’s most complete record of Thoroughbreds and their performance—to produce a sophisticated rating based on all starters and stakes winners on a given cross. The Statistics The TrueNicks rating is derived from two statistical elements: the Sire Improvement Index (SII) and the Broodmare Sire Improvement Index (BSII). Each figure compares the percentage of progeny stakes winners to starters.
