1). Feature: Bill Finley chats to SF Bloodstock's Tom Ryan and several other industry members about the scoping process in the U.S.

“Watching horses all these years at U.S. yearling sales being twitched and scoped, five, 10, 15, 20 times, depending on their level of popularity, it is just so unnecessary. I was in Australia and watched the sales process, where the veterinarian breezes in and breezes out of the stall and a few minutes later with the click of a mouse you can see perfect images of what the scope shows."
