A gentleman that I work with, who has been to the sale thousands of times and bought plenty of horses confirmed this for me.

Out of curiosity, why do you keep arguing this?

Yes, we all know what the sales price was, however what some posters here are indicating is that perhaps the same connections paid a different price for the horse a few days prior to buying it publically from themselves.

There is a no forced disclosure of actual owners of horses being sold at the sales.
