Is it just or me or has anyone else noticed a turn in the market for better athletes over pedigree? It seems the last 3 years or so, especially at the two year old sales, its athleticism over female family and sire unless you're talking the big two, Storm Cat and Indy.

I think pedigree weighs less importance to the big buyers who are going after colts. But I know, personally, if im buying a filly, I want as much pedigree as I can afford... Do the sheiks still have harems? Sign me up.
