[GenuineRisk]

I have an acquaintance who travelled halfway across the country to buy a mare as a broodmare prospect for $1000 because she was a granddaughter of Seattle Slew. Needless to say, it would have been cheaper to just light $1000 and throw it in the street because it would have saved on transport costs.

I like your articles as I don't know much about pedigree handicapping, other than speed on top stamina on bottom allegedly being good for classic distances.

I guess I shouldn't judge my acquaintance too much. The past few Derbies I'd have saved money by, instead of wagering, lighting my money on fire and throwing it in the street because I'd have saved on subway fare to Aqueduct.
