come on steve...it's a business, and this guy is treating it as one....who cares what the owner is worth? sell them when the perceived value is at its height. I feel bad that Helen Pitts has lost another good colt, but if you own 20% you don't exactly get to insist on anything (unless it was put into the contract ahead of time).

and let me ask you this? if the horse had been with pletcher and bought and sent to Pitts would you be this outraged? my guess is no, because you like one and don't like the other.
