Either way .. the horse was a 75K yearling six months ago ... and while it showed a nice stride in the under-tack show ... 275K seems like a bit of a reach considering the pedigree and that the horse didn't exactly show overwhelming raw speed.

David Ingordo. Sanan, who is in Cincinnati, just explained the 2 they liked today were the one they bought and Hip #149, an E Dubai that went to Stonestreet for $260,000. He said their target budget for both was $250k. They like one tomorrow.

I thought the E Dubai was pretty athletic ... I'd certainly be interested in betting on it come it's debut.

Another one that looked like a bit of a reach though for 260K.

52K September yearling. The dam never finished 1st or 2nd in a race ... was 9th beaten 20+ lengths in a 20K Maiden Claiming race in her final start and than mercifully retired.

The dam did drop a stakes winner ... but it won a very shabby 50K "consolation" stakes race at 20/1 odds at Hastings Park : http://www.drf.com/drfNCWeeklyHorseD...80921&raceNo=8

It now runs for a high priced claiming tag at Hastings.
