oh i beg to differ my friend, very much beg to differ

my guess is that she won't sell -- won't meet the reserve which has got to be a pretty penny

I hope not so we can see her at Arlington next year, she would most definetly run in the Beverly D if kept sound

You are out of your element here dude.
Shes not just a broodmare prospect.
What she is is a THREE year old grade one winning undefeated mare who still has racing value.
You haven't figured that into the equation.
Shes also got a strong bottom line and she can be bred to just about any premier commerical stallion because of her pedigree. You could take her to Ap Indy, Storm Cat, Distorted Humor, any of those.
Shes three million easily.

oh no oracle, i understand that very well -- i just wonder what mr. lothenbach's reserve is going to be -- knowing the potential value of the remainder of her racing career (having a great shot at the beverly d, FM Turf next year) and then the value of her progeny.

i have no doubt that she's going to bring in lots of money, but will it be enough to meet the reserve he chooses? that was what i was thinking, that perhaps nobody out there will pay what he wants for her. he didn't sell her for an offer of $500,000 after her maiden win, so what will he want for her now?

Well he would have taken 600 I suspect.
So maybe it won't be as high as you think.

well you know more than i do about this, perhaps part of it is wishful thinking on my part that she will stay in chicago with block -- i just assumed that he would expect a LOT of cash for her all things considered.

on a sidenote: what makes you say that you suspect that he would have taken 600? is that just an arbitrary thought on your part?

strictly arbitrary.
