Bruce Lunsford, a candidate for a Kentucky seat the U.S. Senate, retained the other 50%, according to Sikura.

Before Madcap Escapade went through the sale ring, Sikura and Southern Equine each owned 25% of the mare, so, in essence, Southern Equine’s interest was bought out. Lunsford had sold Madcap Escapade, when she was in foal to Pulpit, at the 2006 Keeneland November breeding stock sale to Sikura’s Hill ‘n’ Dale Bloodstock, agent, for $6 million. Soon afterward, Lunsford bought back a 50% interest in Madcap Escapade and the foal she was carrying.

yeah, pretty convoluted. i guess she was sold for six, then lunsford decided he wanted to stay in for half. and the other half was actually two quarters, but is now one half.
