Well there are only 2 on the both lists that interests me (and they're still available), while there are a couple of others not mentioned that I really like.

$275,000 . CHURCHILL DOWNS

yeah it's true mate, but next time i think we need an overall salary cap a bit less than the current 2.5 mill, say 1.75 and then you'd have to think a bit more about those big bids and shop around more, especially if you still needed min. 2 horses in each category.

Personally I think the only way you can get away from this is limiting how much the value can be raised say a maximum of $50,000 per bet and one person cannot raise his own bet.

I should point out, buyers should check horse history carefully before biding. You might find yourself with horses that are off to a 3mth spell [EG: Churchill downs, Gold Edition, and Publishing to name a few about to spell].


$350,000 . ALL BLACK GOLD
$300,000 . NADEEM

Yes, assuming I do something like this again in the spring, I will definitely make some sort of rule change. But as it is well within the rules this time, then I am obviously not going to change it now.

$395,000 ALL BLACK GOLD
$370,000 MENTALITY

OK Woody, $400k for ABG

Ummm, Woody, sorry mate, but you didn't select any 4YO+ horses at all before the deadline passed last night, and we already have 21 stables, so I'm afraid I can't really let you get involved in the 3YO auction.

In any case, with no 4YO+ horses at all in your stable, you would have very little chance of winning.

Sportz, am I still able to pick a stable 'A' from remaining 4YOs+ ?

$425,000 ALL BLACK GOLD
