Having done a bit of research I find that the most expensive horses can perform well at good prices. Does anyone else ever look at sales data on Racing Post?
Snaafi dancer in real terms still the most expensive ever yearling. So slow never saw a racecourse. Then had infertility problems with just 4 foals in 2 years. None of which where ever good.

Again, do you think she retains the same ability? you said we wouldn't know after one run, fair enough so now she's run better you think we definitely know she has now after two runs? Pot kettle black springs to mind

you don't lump on an unraced based on a sales price mccarthy16.
but you it helps on making assumptions about the opposition sometimes. e.g. the 2 sakhee's secrets in the first at catterick.
every bit of info helps put the pieces together.

doantwin2easy 06 May 15 00:27 anyone who doesn't look at foal and yearling prices for 2yr old maidens is pissing in the wind.
You may as well be pissing in the wind, risking money in such races imo.

opposition..purchase price/prices..pedigree..trainer..market support..demeanour..draw (on occasions)..foaling date..all need to be considered with 2yo newcomers..no bet unless perceived edge great enough to take chance on inexperience

The horse just mentioned was as running today with a huge price tag as a yearling. Beaten in 2 maidens both odds on.
