SPOT THE CAT 2

Back again? Didn't spot the cat from yesterday's picture?

And I didn't mean this Spot!

Here's a slightly more zoomed in section of the photo. See how you get on this time.

Get it...? If not, last one tomorrow...

SPOT THE CAT

One of my favourite cartoons is Hong Kong Phooey, and of course I love Phooey himself who blunders around all over the place and eventually gets the glory for the hard work that his cat, Spot, puts in to solve the mystery...

And of course, Spot is actually not at all spotty but stripey.

Anyway...

Here's another type of Spot The Cat that should get the brain cells working.

I'll post another image tomorrow and Friday that will help. Just check back after midday (GMT).

BRICKS OR HORSES...

Here’s an interesting detail. Since the early 1970s what happens in the bloodstock market is mirrored by the property market and wider economy 18 months later.  By that I mean the sale values of unbroken, unraced yearlings.  When they reach a peak, the property market runs ahead for a year and a half and then tops out.

The last boom for yearling sales reached its peak during 2006.  During that year property investor John Magnier bid $16m for a colt named The Green Monkey. The horse proved hopeless and values tailed off. So too, did the economy and had a disastrous year in 2008.

And the good news is...

...at end 2011 the bloodstock market is buoyant again!

Prices achieved at Tattersall's October sale in Newmarket were up 35% year on year.  Property investor Sir Robert Ogden bought a filly for £900,000.

So, in 18 months will the property market and fortunes be booming again?  On the strength of the econometric analysis you wouldn't lay odds much higher than 2:1 or maybe even odds on?

WHAT THE....?

   
I spotted this in a shop the other day!

Not your average corner shop or supermarket it must be said, but what the heck is this for?
I can only think it is used on horses (for it was a horsey shop) when they have foals that are
making their udders sore?

But, your guess is as good as mine...
