The atmosphere in Southern California is so much better than at this time last year. Santa Anita has had a great meet, and the purses are high. |
This is what we call a new beginning. I don't see any downsides right now. |
We are excited that we now have a lot of working capital to bring it to market. |
We lost a major buyer (with the recent death of Bob Lewis); we had a smaller catalogue; and there wasn't as much depth in the catalogue as last year, so I'm very happy. We survive to fight another day. |
We've had a good representation of international buyers already, including French agents and English agents; there are three or four we haven't seen in a while. More people are looking at our sale and taking it seriously this year. |
