Iam wanting to know the value of a mare named SOCOTRA she has a Blissfull Hall filly foal at foot and in foal to Aces N Sevens just wondering what people would value her at
Not sure on the value but as a guess 12-14k if it was me and i was thinking of selling i'd sell the mare in foal and then put the Blissfull Hall filly through the yearling sale's.
The negatives: Bissfull Hall and a filly
The positives: Troublemaker mare who whilst hasnt thrown any champions, has certainly thrown horses with ability
I agree with Mango. Without wanting to offend, I think 12k is about right
I disagree with mango about putting the filly through the sales though. i think you wont get anywhere near its fair vlaue
Hi Mightymo
With the mare having 3 winners out of 4 old enough to race and one of them being Work Of Artist who won this years 2yr old Lombo fillies final winner it might sell ok. It all depends on looks and i do agree that B-Hall fillies don't sell well but i reckon that filly could bring $10k at the Bathurst sale if it is a good type which is nearly what the 3 in one package is worth.
I have seen the filly and she is just about faultless i tend to agree with mango to sell that way (splitting them up) she is not mine just making some enquiries as i think the mare and foal may come up for sale in the near future
Hi Mightymo
I do understand that but i was of the assumption that Winston owned them and would of prepared the filly.
A friend owns them and they would be prepared by himself
i think they'd nearly be giving the filly away at a sale, i'd be keeping her at home
Hey Winston
Has your friend been getting any call's at the $20k mark.
Dug out the catalogues. At Mick's on-property sale back in early July of 2010 she sold for $5,000 in foal to Blissfull Hall, went to a bloke from Dubbo, NSW by the surname of Burns. Her most recent yearling, a colt by Pocket Watch named Willing Hand Lombo, was sold for $3,750 to Tony Conte.
G'day Mango what do you reckon she will be for sale for a long time at that money i told him 12 top dollar
Hi Winston
I wish your mate all the best in selling her but for me she's way over's. Mightmo put a price ($12k) on her and he is a gentleman that buy's and sell's not only in Australia but New Zealand as well so he know's what his talking about so i think that would of been the price i'd be putting on her. I think the downfall in selling her is that the sire's are not that commercial these day's in that you would be able to recoup your money through the yearling sale's so the people that would be looking at buying her would be the people who would race her stock and $20k isn't what they would pay.
She will never be sold at that money it is just ridiculous to even ask it
Wasted his time putting the add on and now i think about it i wasted my time reading it, can i bill him for that.
Hey Winston
How did he go trying to sell that mare.
Ha ha still there and will be for a long time no phone calls was the last i heard
Looks like his racing then, the mare would owe him no more than $10k and his not going to get anywhere near $20k so tell him to enjoy himself racing and breeding. And there's some breeding there so he might get lucky and get something that can run.
She owes him about 8,000 tops if she was mine i would race her as well and the family IMO is to good to sell just got to get the right sires over her i think
Hi Winston
You have hit the nail on the head she needs the right sire to be infoal to and if she was she would be worth some money. The Blissfull Hall filly and infoal to Aces doesn't do much for me you would only be buying her to race those progeny. If you friend goes back through the sale results and look's at what there been selling for he would rethink his price. Over the past 2yrs there's been some nicely breed fillies sell cheap as fillies are hard to sell unless they are in the top bracket which she is not.
Hi Winston
I see this mare is for sale infoal to Ace's for $12,500, the package with the Blissfull Hall filly was worth about that and now with out the Blissfull Hall filly it's a $7.5k mare.
Sorry for the late reply Mango been away for a month in the sick bay
Totally agree with you there on that one Mango some people may be just greedy and hoping someone will turn up with the cash
Hi Winston
Sick bay mate that's know good, i hope all is well now. Maybe it might be worth a go at putting that mare in the Peppertree sale in September you never know he might get lucky.
Alls ok now with the sick bay
I suggested putting her in the sale but haven't heard anything back
I see the yearling by Lombo Pocket Watch for sale for $55,000 now i dont know who's dreaming
Hey Winston
Where did you see that cause that's a lot of coin for a yearling by an unproven sire.
Hey Winston
Just come across the add :
STORMEE
Broken in and gaited
A classy individual $55k
I thought you were geeing me up when i read your post and then i came across the add on the Harness Web. They purchased the colt for $3,750 so if they sell him they are making a nice little profit.
Hi Mightymo
$55k is a lot of money for a yearling that say's broken in and gaited, you would be better of waiting for the RTR sale in n.z and with the exchange rate that $55k is about $70 n.z and you would get a nice horse for that and at least you would see them run a long a bit.
for that money he would want to be able to run about 2.02 and a half in under or close to the 1.00
Correct there Winston, but to be honest with you i'd hate to see a yearling running those time's this early in the piece. I remember talking to Mark Purdon on how he preps his youngsters and he said they get broken in then have a month or so of and then they come in for 10-12 wks and at the end of that prep he like's them to work down to 2:10, so it would be interesting at what stage this colt is at and as Mightymo posted people doing yearling's for the RTR sale havn't got a handle on them yet.
For mine they should be able to brush up a good furlong under 16 at this stage before starting their second prep
It would be interesting to see what this $55k yearling can actually do whether it be a furlong in under 16 seconds or a mile in 2:10, all it say's is broken in and gaited and if that's all that's been done i can't see how one can warrant putting such a hefty price on him.
You couldn't put a price on him like that unless he's shown something pretty special right from day one
Just my personal opinion i think it is still to early to tell and if i had that sought of coin i would be waiting for the Ready To Run in N.Z or Bathurst towards the later part of year where you can see them zip a long a bit and get more of an idea.
Where in harness web does it have horses for sale?
