OK, I admit it, I am a Dynaformer addict. I was a Barbaro fan (the greatest son of Dynaformer). I have cashed many tickets on late developing offspring of Dynaformer. I own 5% of a Point of Entry (another son of Dynaformer) yearling. I started in the partnership game by buying a son of Temple City (also by Dynaformer).
There is one lonely daughter of Temple City at the Ocala sale. She is hip #81. The mare was a solid Maryland bred that won over $200,000 in 24 starts. She earned an Equibase figure of 102 at 1 1/16ths miles on the turf at Delaware. She is by Devils Bag, which is not really a turf broodmare sire, but the nick is rated A++ by TrueNicks. The 2nd dam produced some nice horses, including Foufa’s Warrior that set a NCR at 1 1/8 of the turf.
I am not ready to give up on Temple City. Maybe I am crazy, but this might be my favorite turf horse in the whole sale.
This filly sold for only $7,000 as a yearling to a small operation called Six K’s Training and Sales. They have 5 horses for sale at Ocala. Maybe I could take this one home for $20,000?
