Those Tapits are gorgeous

[@kepnjem]

Absolutely everything in the racing game is a gamble.

This game owes a debt to Amr Zedan. That Curlin wouldnt have broke the RNA of 3 million and the Into Mischief bidding would have stalled out around a million. He basically injected 6 million into the pockets of the families in this industry in one night.

[@rebecca94503]

I wonder what Beholder's first colt might have brought at public auction. QB One was by Uncle Moe and just as well bred as this Curlin colt. Couldn't run a lick. I wish this very expensive hip all the luck, time will tell.

[@mikerelva6915]

QB One was just never athletic or really put together well, plus, Mandella isn't really that good of trainer (I know taboo to say but it is the truth). This guy is different tho, he is the real deal if he can stay healthy and with the greatest trainer of all time. That Bolt Beholder filly does look excellent tho, and tho Teena Ella was beat a few times on dirt she is a very nice filly too. Beholder is definitely the real deal as a broodmare.

[@ginnygustafson4324]

I loved that mare VirginiaKey on the track. Hope that baby can run.

[@joeg5414]

Who is this Bruce? I've just started watching these and I think he's spent about 20 million in the few videos I've seen. Last one he spent 9.5 million on one horse

[@davidyoder-rh4wf]

Great lawnmower

[@hollycohoon9239]

208 is my favorite

[@StarlightGazer-pv3qx]

#204 was mine beautiful line and thick cannon's.

[@joeg5414]

I liked 228, seemed the most calm and friendly. 165, that last one, I thought was the best looking horse though. Not that I know anything about this and what to look for😂208 was a nice looking one, 2nd favorite looks wise.

[@silenusut]

Beautiful animals … but why nothing on their breeding ?

[@DeannaWalsh]

You have to go to the catalog and look up the hip numbers. Or, you can look up each sire and dam individually. The video did show the sire and dam right below their hip number just as they walk into the ring, but then it goes away.

[@DeannaWalsh]

To the new owners of the Curlin - Beholder colt. His name should be Gazer. It’s the only name that is fitting. Please don’t give it a really bad name, like all her other babies.

[@ArtistInNewHampshire]

Are all of these breeding stock?

[@sherrie6492]

They are yearlings. Race prospects.

[@ArtistInNewHampshire]

@@sherrie6492 thanks!

[@StarlightGazer-pv3qx]

They are all babies 2 and under lol. Like a racehorse is exactly that at 2 putting them up for sale after the fact? Also I believe theres bull station stuff happening. There is no way that a horse I won't name breed 98 mares and there all in foal in under a year using only mother nature.

[@hillaryilinsky1009]

come back in five or six years and see how much this group earned against their cost. i did this a few years ago and that groups on track earnings didn't come close to their cost. but all you need is one and it's a whole different story. possible future stallion fees not included.

[@Echeverria0107]

And Flightline….?

[@jennifermcclain4478]

& Rich Strike sold for the bargain basement price of $30,000😊

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

They haven't even ran in a race yet. The buyer's are praying they can run fast, stay healthy, and win, win, win lot's of money. Then its on to the breeding shed to start the cycle all over again ?

[@joeg5414]

People just flat can't listen and do what they're told. Tells them to please by quiet until they have the horse out. 10 seconds later and everyone is clapping and yelling...again...and the horse is still right in front of them🙄

[@just-a-bajan6643]

Waste of money.

[@ingridvpolor6383]

You are wrong because money is just a paper and this paper will not save you from death, the real waste is money ​

[@trex_vr8020]

More money lost in the stock market everyday than horse racing. Life is a gamble.

[@christip20]

That’s yet to be determined, & only your unqualified opinion at this point.

[@christinolivier7362]

Certainly not

[@pamabbott5357]

A good horse will earn that after his first few starts and move on to stakes , if he can run at all. Good luck buyers , nice horses there at Saratoga.

[@nayrod4529]

At the end, he's telling everyone to be quiet and they still yet. C'mon people you know better.
