APG 2022 Sales

The Passed In trend continues
Lot 54 an Ohoka Punter (service fee $1,800), unless you go back to the 3rd dam, the only selling point is that it is a half bro to Signor Jujon who has won $70k. They knock back $50k !!!!

This morning PP tried to rubbish lot 51 (as he does not like Dean Baring) - massive fail by PP as the filly just sold for $100k and is leading filly as we pass the half way mark

Lots 10 & 13 of Lazarus's that got to $45k want $60k (Lot 38 of his got $60k). Memo to vendors, he is unproven and Bettors is yet to produce an heir/good siring son

Is B.Graham Brittany?
Bought the Lazarus for $60k and Dean Baring's $100k Sweet Lou
with GST that is $176k in the shopping basket

Lot 78 a Sunshine Beach colt was Passed In for $155k !!!!
A full bro to Gp1 2yo Awaywego but $155k is serious money

Lot 46 a Betting Line (out of favour) late filly (Jan 15) from an ordinary Dam and 2nd dam AND they knocked back over $20k from memory

Edit My memory must have been wrong as I now see a Reserve of $15k

Sales updates were good until Lot 56 but nothing since

Not as many Passed In in the 2nd half of the sale but still 32 of 85 Passed In which is about 38%

I am not sure why Lot 66 thinks they deserve $70k
His only real credential apart from being a Bettors is being a full bro to Lifes Black who has $96k in the bank but is not guaranteed to earn much more than $100k
$50k bid seemed a fair offer although if they paid $27k for the service?

With his imminent move to Queensland, Tim Butt bought 4

Lot 78 a Sunshine Beach colt was Passed In for $155k !!!!
A full bro to Gp1 2yo Awaywego but $155k is serious money

They want $180k for him !
Sunshine Beach stands for $4,000 in Canada
This is not a strong arm of N3
The following is the noteworthy descendants of his 5th dam
The 5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd dams produced ZERO of note (the best being the dam ($53,789) by the 2nd dam)

It would seem that with a reserve like that the breeder did not want to sell the colt but had to put him through the sale to qualify him for the rich race series
