Blue 1,080 Report post Posted August 29, 2019 Nothing quite like horse traders to have an over-inflated idea of values. Yearling sales are a good example of that. Despite the costs to get their babies to the sales (stud fees, prep etc) they're still only worth what someone is prepared to pay.

Stables 577 Report post Posted August 29, 2019 Regardless of what you think a horse is worth Blue it's up to the owners to refuse to sell their horse for less than they think it's worth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue 1,080 Report post Posted August 29, 2019 True that but I was told years ago by a good cattle man that " it's always better to be sorry you sold than sorry you didn't sell." True in most cases. JJ Flash 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
