What Would He Bring?

If the Moss's put Bernardini and Quennies's baby into a yearling sale. Assuming he's correct.

What would he bring?

Be schocked if it was less than The Green Monkey who weighed in at a cool $16,000,000. OOOF.

I put the reserve at $25,000,000. Insane?

Gone are those days now I'm afraid. Its a big deal now if a horse goes for a cool million.

It would be a longshot if he exceeded the sales topper for the last 5 years.
I can't believe you're serious.

I am serious. I also freely admit I know very little about these kind of things. That's why I used The Green Monkey as an example.

I would think that any knowledgeable buyer would be wary of paying too much for the hype.
The bottom line is that a talented mare doesn't guarantee talented babies.

What about Dad? Bernardini was pretty darn good and already has some very successful offspring. No?

Dic:

Bloodstock agents around the world will be relieved to know that you will not be able to steal their jobs too because you clearly know nothing about how to value a horse.

Wait a second weren't you a bloodstock agent? Remember when Garcia stiffed that horse and then you tried to make a deal for the horse? Shouldn't you be a quasi expert?

What's a quasi?

It all depends what the horse's legs look like.

Long by a few letters...............How about?.........Secondtoblame................

[Danzig]

he'd be an RNA, regardless of the highest bid.

[Linny]

As a yearling (TGM was a 2yo when he sold and his "price" is disputed) a Bernardini/Z colt (if very correct) would probably bring a couple of million, especially since Sheik Mo bids on the Bernardinis.

Ntamm, how 'bout BeatnbybetratCD? Or, Who's to Blame? Or GostofInvsrnBlame?

[Calzone Lord]

Bernardini had 67 yearlings offered at public auction last year. None sold for higher than $1.2 million.

Two years ago, his highest priced yearling was $800K.

He gets bred to a whole lot of good race mares and producers.

Zenyatta was only a $60,000 yearling herself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MP8VFLO25Q4

You know a few buyers would reach badly for her 1st offspring at auction and it only takes two. Even with that said -- if 70 Bernardini's are offered as yearlings that year -- this one would probably have to have a consensus top 5 look to get past $3 million.

The Green Monkey has nothing to do with any yearling. He was about a 500K or so purchase as a yearling and he had relatively unremarkable breeding.
