2010 sales highlights for Big Bad Bob included Moment of Weakness, who made 100,000gns at Tattersalls July sale.  Moment of Weakness raced for Jessica Harrington as a two year old, winning his maiden over five furlongs in April and following up with another conditions event in May.  In June he stepped up to Listed class, finishing an eyecatching second in the Galtee Rochestown Stakes at Cork.  US trainer Jamie Lloyd spotted his potential and bought him to race in America, where he quickly stepped up to be placed second in a Grade 3 at Hollywood Park over a mile.  His future looks bright.

Buy Back Bob who had finished second for Ger Lyons in the Gowran Park Classic Trial as a three year old, also impressed at the sales, when Patsy Byrne shelled out 140,000gns for him at Tattersalls Horses In Training sale in October.
