Written for buyers of standardbred yearlings, "A Guide to the
Lexington and Harrisburg Yearling Sales," contains almost 300 pages
of information that has never been published. The author has
created a metric to measure the success of the 5,685 horses sold at
the Lexington and Harrisburg Sales from 2008 through 2010.
Yearlings from these two sale venues must earn a minimum of $50,000
as two-year olds in order to be considered successful. The author
provides a multitude of charts which illustrate the highest success
rates in the production of these elite performers among sires,
broodmare sires, crosses, farms, consignors, raced and unraced
dams, price, birth order and much more. The data is detailed by
sale venue, gait and gender. The information and analysis will be
invaluable for the prospective yearling buyer. Stan Bergstein said
it best in his review of Carl's previous book "Profiles of Two-Year
Old Standardbreds Earning $50,000 and Up" "If you are interested in
being an informed buyer, if you like playing the percentages in
your favor, if you want to operate with something more than a wing
and a prayer when picking yearlings, then you had better go to the
sales with a copy of Carl Palumbo's valuable and excellent work
close by..." The Lexington and Harrisburg Sales are highly
competitive. Only 7.1% of the horses sold from 2008 - 2010 earned
$50,000 or more at two. Using this book can increase the chances of
getting that elusive, elite performer and provide an edge over
other buyers. Going to the Sales without this book is like going to
the races without a program. Chapter listing: Chapter 1: Success
