I wonder if they'll get their money back if he turns out to be a failure like their brilliant purchase last year.

At least they're keeping him with Mott. Also, WinStar is retaining the breeding rights- must have been a real sweetheart deal for them.

It's not often you get the opportunity to sell a slow horse for a lot of money.

It kind of reminds me of the line from Die Hard " You asked for a miracle....I give you the F.B.I. "

He's a slow horse and his races have proven that. Could he improve as a 3YO? Of course....but he better.

Excellent sale by WinStar. Took the money....soon they will want to run....and hide.

The one and only Lawrence the Roman.

Also don't forget about Big Brown who ran once in a Saratoga MSW on closing day, was purchased by IEAH and hasn't been seen since.

Wasn't he supposed to have returned about seven different times? Maybe the IEAH publicist assigned to Derby Trail, you know the guy who started this thread and only posts IEAH related news, can give us some long awaited hype about him.

They foolishly bought him after he ran a couple of phony races while taking advantage of the inside bias on the inner dirt. After he was horribly exposed in the Whirlaway, original owner Larry Roman let them out of the deal.
