Well, many of these deals that are completed of horses with foreign owners or with prime targets are often allowed to run the horse in their name until after that race, or in this case I thought they would at least let the previous owners let him race for them until the end of the carnival.

Oh, there is no doubt they probably felt under some pressure to sell. I know I would have done in that situation when basically the ruling family of the country you are in have said they want to buy your horse.

I just hope they haven't bought him to eliminate the competition for Literato (if he's still pointed towards the world cup). In a way, I'd hope they run Happy Boy and point Literato somewhere else.
