Unless she is missing a leg, wouldn't this filly have some worth as a broodmare prospect? (on their RNA list)

In this market not really. No graded black type in the 1st dam and too much turf. This kind will sell for 3 or 4k at Kee Jan.

Seriously? I looked at the female family. I don't get it. There are other KJs out there. Why $20K for this one?

Get real. Strictly as a mare? You could buy half sisters to a horse of the year for 20k at the Nov sale and with 5th/3rd completely getting out of the equine lending business the next sale will be even worse. An unraced mare by a sire who has never sired a graded winner out of a NY bred mare with no graded blacktype? $4k is probably too much.

I get along fine with Ramsey, I just dont want him to owe me money.

She is a yearling - at least for 2 more days.

TDN has a rather in depth analysis of freshman sires for the upcoming year, today.

Pretty interesting read.
