MNTB AUCTION SERIES FINALE
\nWith perfect weather forcast, for Saturday’s Minnesota-Testbarn Residency’s AUCTION SERIES finale. The Place where the “Turf Meets the Surf”(Old DelMar), is the place to be and looking pretty inviting for a fun-filled afternoon of racing, Saturday.<\/p>\n
The “AUCTION SERIES”, was developed, as a way to raise “Sim” cash, for the Residency’s “Prize” breeding program. The contest horses were all bred using breeding cards and named OOOI-OOOXX and thrown into the auction. The “SERIES”, comprised of 4 races(2dirt+2turf), at distances from 5f-7.5f. Has been dominated by just a few horses, regardless of surface and distance. So it will be interesting to see if anything changes, in this final race.<\/p>\n
The final race is to be contested at 7.5f on the turf, with\u00a0 only 5 of the original 20 eligible runners set to face the starter, only time will tell, who gets the prize. GOOD LUCK TO ALL!<\/strong> 1.) OOOXVIII TB (15 SERIES Pts.)<\/strong> The sire ACCEPTABLE(by CAPOTE) shows lifetime earnings of over $713,000 in 17 career starts. His “Sim” stats as a sire, show him ranked #898 w\/ 4.3% Stakes winners<\/p>\n 2.) OOOXI TB (11 SERIES Pts.)<\/strong> The sire BOLD TRUTH(by SEATTLE SLEW) shows lifetime earnings of over $112,000. His “Sim” stats as a sire, show him ranked #1,104. His dam-sire AREION, Was Champion 3YO Sprinter (in RL Germany) in 1998 and leading sire in 2010 & 2013.<\/p>\n 3.) OOOVI TB (7 SERIES Pts.)<\/strong> With this one skipping the last race, the others have a chance to get a piece of the pie.<\/p>\n 4.) OOOIV TB (6 SERIES Pts.)<\/strong> In RL SEEK SMARTLY only managed 2 wins in 12 starts and earnings a little over $97,000. In the “Sim”, the son of SEEKING THE GOLD\u00a0 has only managed to produce winners at a rate of 38.5%<\/p>\n 5.) OOOXII TB(4 SERIES Pts.)<\/strong> In RL her sire HARBOUR WATCH was a perfect 3 for 3. In the “Sim”, the son of ACCLAMATION has progeny winning at a credible 61.4% clip, w\/ 2% stakes winners. The extra .5f should help here.<\/p>\n *The end goal for all the contestants was a overall PRIZE POOL\u00a0 of 1500 GAME CREDITS, (scoring in each race was 5,4,3,2,1). The prize divided as follows: **In addition to the original prize, I will also be giving a unraced 2yo LOCAL BRED to the first 5 So with nothing guaranteed, it will be interesting to see if OOOVIII TB can go undefeated or if OOOXI TB can steal the main prize and top honors?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MNTB AUCTION SERIES FINALE With perfect weather forcast, for Saturday’s Minnesota-Testbarn Residency’s AUCTION SERIES finale.
