I have observed that the Dick Turpins have struggled at this sale. He is one that definitely needs some winners real soon.

Demerit - selling like it is the end of civilisation for some, then some are next to nothing
Oratorio - something of a comeback (people chasing 2yo's)
Blackfriars - still pound for pound the best commercial/stakes producer in the State
There was a son of Verglas being promoted via fenceline banners, as a new acquisition for WA as well. No doubt the first of several for the new breeding season.
There will be first season sires stock on sale next year I would think, as not all of Sessions, Safeguard, I'm All The Talk yearlings will be retained and most likely will be offered in Feb '18.
One of the better ones at the moment in Demerit will be missing of course next year.
I know no one wants to say anything bad about a stallion but if people don't speak the truth your certainly no helping others in my opinion.
Damien can you tell us what new sires you have heard of or may have heard are coming over?
i did see that Neville bought a few of the playing gods and top price paid was by Patrick Payne, from what i could see from my computer screen it was a lovely looking animal .

If the Stallion prospect is coming out of the UK or Ireland, I find attheraces.com is a good place to start for finding out form and watching video replays of his races and who he raced against. Obviously here in Australia we have loads of sources including the studbook.org.au or racingandsports.com.au for racing history etc.
For transplanted Stallions, those who have stood elsewhere, research their fertility, winners to runners, sales ring success and suitability along bloodlines for your mare. There are many resources for this.
Finally I would respectfully suggest that any opinion you would want to seek should be independent. That's an opinion not from someone working for, working with, someone who owns in part or outright, or who organised the purchase of that Stallion prospect.
It's too important not to.

Lucky Street was special.
Perhaps a possible prospect for Danehill line mares that have strong underlying families. He may add an element of early speed which appeals to many.
I personally don't advocate a stallions prospect's at Stud purely on racetrack success but more and more stand on this basis around the World.
So if your mare cannot justify a more commercial stallion, this horse may be worth a chance.

I'd like to see two new 'good' prospects come to WA not two go to the Hunter and two old rejects get the flick to WA. So many potential horses surely one day we will get a good one.
To answer your question, but also to give you the best chance of getting something that can run, go to Gingerbread Man.
