He supposedly had a 500k offer on the horse, if it is real money, and actually a real offer, he needs to sell that horse to help set him up for his future.

Unless the guy is a multi millionaire, which I doubt since he didn't have the full $5k to pay for the horse, this is a no brainer now.

I completely understand why he didn't do it before, but they are like tomatos, they eventually go bad

Well the horse is his wife so she probably has the final say on being sold. Just depends if she was faithful to him in human form.

Thomas, have you seen this dude? He has a foot in the grave already. All the money in the world won't change that. I hope he just keeps her.

Don't call me Thomas.

I don't disagree, but alot of people have had one foot in the grave and went on to enjoy the next 20 years on a beach somewhere drinking pina coladas with a 24 year old girl with huge jugs

Remember how many times you told me last summer that I didn't understand pace, "Joey S"?

He reiterated today in the winner's circle that he won't sell her.

I am glad he scratched out of the last and ran her in this spot.. Frankel was watching today's card sitting next to Gann wondering how much it would take to get her into the barn. This one has a look that they went for... Who cares about the page the bitch can run...Frankel/Gann would have there fun with this one

The Frankel/Gann combo probably would have employed the gold digging stripper to work her magic and put a full court press on the poor guy right after the horse won its debut by a city block at FL.

Maybe they weren't that slick - but it sure felt like it when they were still alive and going good.

Seemed to me they always played the game and had fun.. Buy horses that can run instead of guessing if they can ever run. How many can you remember?
