G'day Mango,
I should have added to the above....
I'm in two minds about the Videos. I like them from the point of view that it's very enjoyable to look through them all however at the same time my gut feeling is that quite a lot of horses will get themselves red penned because of, for want of a better term... a poor screen test...while at the same time very few horses will get themselves included due to the camera loving them. Like everyone else we had the opportunity to get all of our yearlings done but declined it because in terms of their sale preparation we felt the timing wasn't right to record in the first week of January yearlings that were lined up to go to under the hammer on the 27th of February. Others might see it differently but in the life of a yearling sometimes 6-7-8-9 weeks can be a long time. I was only talking to a friend of mine two days ago about this. She preps heaps of yearlings every year and remarked on how much she felt her draft had come on... even in the short space of time between the photos being taken and the recordings having been made...and now.
