SOME POSITIVES One of the real positives is: there are still people prepared to spend $300,000 or more on a yearling. There were 46 yearlings sold for $300,000 or more at Saratoga by 31 different stallions. It is very good news for their breeders and consignors that probably a big majority of the 46 actually made somebody money. As breeders are selling off record 2008 stud fees into the lowest demand since 1992, nobody=s expecting to make money this year; to get the horses sold and come out of the year with some money will be a win, because at least when breeders go to sign up for their 2011 stud fees, those will have really crashed too. Moreover, there are new faces, as well as some of the great established players. Sheikh Mohammed, of course; he flew into town and bought 14 at the sale, though the >good= news is he accounted for less than 20 percent of the gross. Brother Sheikh Hamdan brought three, including a $350,000 filly from the first crop by his superstar Invasor. But most of the buyers were American. Charlotte Weber=s Live Oak Stud bought five; agent Donato Lanni signed for three, evi- dently all for trainer Bob Baffert (whose Lookin at Lucky stamped himself America=s best three-year-old colt in last weekend=s GI Haskell S.); veteran owners Robert and Lawana Low bought a couple, including a high-priced Distorted Humor filly; and a number of newer players like Bobby Flay, Benjamin Leon=s Besilu Farm (bought the saletopping $1.2-million A.P. Indy colt through trainer Todd Pletcher), and back-in- business Ahmed Zayat were also there to buy. The syndicates (IEAH bought five; West Point, Dogwood, and Centennial were also buyers) and pinhookers were active, too. So, it=s really not as if there is no interest. Definitely, there is not enough interest; there are definitely some massive problems in North America=s horse racing industry, which ultimately may or may not be sorted out. But there is a measurable level of business, and to some extent, it wouldn=t be bad business, either, except for the massive production costs, via the record 2008 stud fees, in this year=s yearlings.

Oppenheim cont. Elsewhere in this issue we publish the TDN Insta- tistics sire tables for the first two yearling sales, Fasig-Tipton July and Saratoga. It=s quite limited data; most of these sires will have a lot more on offer next month, but it is nonetheless informative to look at where the stallions rate after the first two sales. The top four stallions on average actually had just 60 per- “The Saratoga sale makes more sense if you take out the cent of their yearlings sold among them (14 of 23) of 2009 spike in number catalogued and sold, and the big those offered in the first two sales, reinforcing the view jump in gross in the Dubai company’s first year of that it doesn=t matter how high up the scale you go, ownership.

It’s worth noting that 46 of the 117 sold sales were filled by sires with WinStar, Lane=s End, and brought $300,000-plus.” - Bill Oppenheim Darley connections: WinStar=s Distorted Humor (two, averaged $762,500) edged out Lane=s End=s A.P.

Lane=s End=s two-time leading sire Smart Strike had four average $462,500; and WinStar=s Tiznow ranked fifth, with four averaging $352,500. I thought it was also interesting that two sons of A.P.

With Malibu Moon (nine averaged $169,444), Pulpit=s son Tapit (four, averaged $105,250, off a $12,500 stud fee), and--hey, have you heard the news?--Mineshaft (two, averaged $152,500), A.P.
