Its one thing to take a horse for 50K or 60K and see them become a stakes winner; after all, older open 50-60K claimers generally run pretty fast. Beyer pars in the mid 90s. How about a horse claimed out of a M10000 who becomes a graded stakes winner? Lord of the Game was claimed out of the M10 race from WinStar back in December of 2004. I also remember a gelding named Recoup the Cash get claimed out of a 15000 NW2 and go on to become a graded stakes winner.
