After the aborted competition to guess how much Hunt Ball would sell for, is it worth reviving it to have a go at Guesstimating/Estimating how much Oaks winner Dancing Rain will sell for when she goes under the hammer at the Tattersalls December sale?
Just to spice the equation up, she is in foal to the mighty Frankel and could be carrying a future star. I haven’t got a clue where to start in terms of a price but perhaps other members could nail it within a grand?
Just a thought.
ps Frankel-Dancing Rain, if it were my foal I’d call it Power Shower.
Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.
Interesting to know what her reserve is. But to start the bidding 2.5mil assuming this meets the reserve, which it may not.
Ramruma, winner of the 1999 Oaks, Irish Oaks and Yorkshire Oaks, was sold in 2003 to John Magnier for 2,100,000gns.
She was carrying a Machiavellian filly who was called Catherine Linton. She was devoid of ability on the racecourse and has bred only one modest winner.

Whom was "devoid of ability on the racecourse"? Do you mean the foal? What about any others.
Cheers.

I’d call it Wet Dream

That name will never stick Joni

Her best offspring looks to be Flying Cross (3rd 2010 Irish St. Ledger), otherwise little of note. She is supposed to have a colt entered in next year’s Derby but can’t find actually listed in training
Sorry I meant that Catherine Linton was hopeless – Ramruma’s foal that she was carrying when bought.
Yes Flying Cross was decent enough. He at least won 2 races and 3rd in Irish St Leger. Last recorded in David Pipe’s stable but not run for him.
She sold for £4.2 Million to John Ferguson on behalf of Sheikh Mohammed. A bit shy of the world record but not to be sniffed at.

There used to be a theory that top-notch mares rarely gave birth to progeny who came anywhere near the ability of the mother. Supposed reason was that some excess of male hormone had given them that extra oomph on the track, but it would prove a drawback when breeding.
I never found out if there was any substance to the theory. Doubtless at least one TRFr will have some stats!

Urban Sea.
If Australia turns to be as good as they say then add Ouija Board to the list of top class mares.
