I don't think the great Giac-Oh-Mo-Ian Hope!! was all that much of a head scratcher.

He was a 180k yearling buy to start with ... and he looked pretty decent in the preview video ... so 250K is within reason of what you might have projected him to sell for based solely on what he sold for as a yearling and how he breezed.
