The new broodmares’s yearlings will also be added and sold (some in Y62, some for Intermediate and lower in Y61), and they will be bred for foals of Y61.

Maybe after May 29 end of the season so the players have more money to spend.

The yearlings would then be turning 2 completely unfit, which seems weird

Anything that keeps allowance gallopers out of the main auctions are a good thing.

The sooner the better, rather than us all just bidding each other up

The intention is to take out money as much as possible.

Financially targeting the intermediates, juniors and new players seems a little unfair. I'd imagine on average we are don't have the funds to get involved in the standard TBS auctions, so any help in keeping costs down for us would be appreciated.

Well you can also pinhook them. So the rules say no more open auctions, if she hits the low level trainers they can move larger sums of money around in the game while still take some money out. Not including the 3 mil fee to open a new slot should someone want to go that route.

In my experience the ones for this type of auction are bigger lotto tickets. Maybe they’ll help you boost your barn in the shed maybe they’ll make money or not. I have the nots but you never know!
