tasman man 742 Report post Posted September 13, 2012 .....I see you are now including prices as low as $22k as a 'big buy' !!!! I sometimes look at your lists and find them very incomplete in that several horses I personally know went for reasonable money are not included. And by 'reasonable' money I would draw the line @ say $100k plus . A 'big buy' to this thinking would be say $250k ,which to many would be 'peanuts' particularly when some of the Stud fees have exceeded that eg...RD and EDL. Obviously if you are spending the time doing the lists ,you may as well make them more complete. Tho seeing all these 'costly' horses still running in mid-week maidens may be a huge 'turn-off' to prospective owners !!!

tasman man 742 Report post Posted September 14, 2012 Please quote a horse that I left out? I believe 20K in South Island is more than Most? Love to see your several horses I have left out very much indeed. .....but as you start as low as $20k now and include 'well breds' as well I would expect a 'pile' of horses per meeting. I looked last Sat and I think you had maybe 6 horses in each NZ meeting. There were probably 6 wellbreds/big buys in the jumping races alone !! I think you included 2 minor Aussie meetings ,possibly cos the Darley/Patinack/Pommie imports would make huge lists. Then I took a look at Taupo , and the race I looked at you had no horses. I came to the conclusion your lists are incomplete , so I am giving you this feedback. Early on I thought your $40k mentions were hardly "big buys" , and now that you include $20k well.....South Island or not !!! It's just my opinion , and if you are happy posting them , good luck to you !!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilli 81 Report post Posted September 14, 2012 Agree with Tassie Man. Headlining your thread "Big Buys"..then detailing several purchases in the $20k range..makes a mockery of such a description. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary I think you're full of ...it ....has been proven ??? Maybe that horses with North Island 'affiliations' do well in South Island !!!! I doubt if you are too well bred nor were you a 'big buy'. A top 'blue blood'.....yeah right !!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
