Yeah - Diamond Fury for $2.7 million ... Baffert absolutely took him to the school yard on that one.
A Tactical Cat filly worked faster at both 1f and 2f - than the $2.7 million Sea of Secrets - in two seperate under-tack previews that year.
The Tactical Cat filly ended up being stakes winner Fashion Girl. Diamond Fury was 3-for-17 lifetime and never earned black type. How that horse - sired by Sea of Secrets - ever reached $2.7 million is one of those good stories we'll never know .. but I'm sure someone other than just the seller had a picnick off of that one.
