Keeneland Day 1 & 2

The first few days of the Keeneland sale will be fun to watch. Last year the median price was about $350,000 for the first 3 days. Medium priced sires like Twirling Candy do not even have a single hip until day 4.

Just for fun let’s think about what horses we might “steal” for “only’ $200,000. Liz Crow tells and interesting story in the Ten Strike podcast about finding some bargains horses in the first few days that are “in over their heads”.

Here are a few ideas:

1. Candy Ride – 1, 80, 109
2. Gun Runner – 9, 141, 156, 175, 223, 224
3. Classic Empire – 8
4. Connect – 198
5. Frosted – 197
6. Practical Joke – 61
7. Street Sense – 35, 46, 153, 192
8. Union Rags – 96

Maybe one will “fall through the cracks” and I can steal it for $200,000

Day 2:

1. Air Force Blue – 371
2. Cairo Prince – 416
3. Caravaggio – 302, 340,
4. Frosted – 293, 376, 394
5. Gun Runner – 260, 271, 351, 352, 399
6. Honor Code – 354
7. Street Sense – 272
8. Union Rags – 301, 429, 436
