I know this has been brought up before, but I find it interesting that Mike Repole no longer partners with Vinnie Viola when they were so tight a few years ago. From what I read, they are still friends but just wanted to go in different directions with racing. Which I find interesting because it seems they are both bidding on similar high priced yearlings. Mike seems to have a number of new partnerships.

That's the most interesting TB yearling I've seen. Interesting

Roman noses (or more convex heads at least) aren't unheard of in TBs.

Newspaperofrecord has one, and I think people consider her head to be "ugly" or something, but I don't mind it one bit :D

I wonder if it affects their headgear at all. In contrast I remember seeing an unraced (but named, I think) horse on New Vocations that had a fairly prominent concave head.

tbf she does look pretty bad. however i agree there has to be something else that we can't see to justify people not even wanting to bid $5,000 for her, because a ton of these yearling look just as bad or worse and still at least get some money put on them.

A Justify filly out of a Fastnet Rocket mare, Same cross Storm Boy, Learning to Fly, Star of Justice, Just Steel (I wish they would have put that horse on the turf instead of breaking him down), I know American breeders don't fully go for Turf pedigree or Horses but That could be a nice one on the turf if she stays over here with the right people.
Went for $360,000. Looks to be the session topper right now if she sells

Edit: Sold to Bang Bang but a Nyquist yearling is the session topper right now

I just noticed that hip 123 only sold for $250,000. O/o Magical World, making her a half to Guarana, Beatbox, and Magic Dance. Her full brother sold for $1.1million just last year.

Wonder what was wrong with her?

I tried last night, they've only bought horses at this sale, they also had purchased a Yaupon. Its not a term I advise searching for, I saw some weird shit and I quit searching because of that.
