More Quotes from Boyd Browning:
It was obviously a phenomenal horse sale. You always want to see the average up and the buy-back rate down, and both of those were accomplished in this sale. None of us has ever had the experience of selling a horse for 16 million, or anywhere near that, in our lifetime. That was fantastic that was wonderful and that was extraordinary. But even without that, it was still a great horse sale. That was kind of the icing on the cake. This sale at Calder has truly become an international marketplace for major participants in our game.Boyd Browning
