I wasn't referring solely to numbers. Strawbridge has become more active at sales, but Baffert is likely to get more expensive yearling and 2yo purchases than Sheppard will get. It is a very small sample, but looking at their Grade 1 winners this year that sold at public auction: Zenzational ($700k 2yo), Looking at Lucky ($475k 2yo), POTN ($270k yearling), Forever Together ($240k 2yo) and Informed Decision ($320k 2yo).
