Why do you think one of the best and most historic breeding families bought her?

Hate to break up this hardcore pedigree chat, but have any Empire Makers gone through the ring yet? I remember hearing there were going to be some at this sale, correct? I think they were higher hip numbers or I'm waaaay off base here (wouldnt be the first time). And I know I could look this up, but to be quite frank I'm handicapping Saratoga tomorrow and I'm just too damn lazy to look that up as well. Plus I think my laptop can only handle 1 PDF at a time. Back to talking about stuff that is over my head now...

Im going to try and check out the sale online tomorrow as well. Clearing my evening. Should be interesting what the Mineshaft filly goes for. Lane's End sent most the Missy Baba line mares to Came Home but this one is intriguing as hell.

Sumitas, are you making a "wish list" for us in those sales too? There's actually two fillies that caught my eye in those sales. I'll have to check them out again to remember which ones.

I'm going to be very nervous - I just think the world of Mineshaft. Bill Farish sounds really confident in his September Mineshaft yearlings. This particular filly must be special since they singled her out for this sale to showcase her sire.

Slightly off-topic, im shocked at how many extremely well-bred foals in the Sept sale are being pushed back into the 2000-4000 range due to shear numbers. There are going to be some really good deals to be had at the sale. Maybe its time for me to join one of the sheiks harems.
