Obviously I have no idea what the deal with the horse, but his Thorograph sheet was very good, and had the pedigree to do almost anything. It is very curious for the drop but I think could have been worth the risk for 25k....time will tell

The drop was so strange I am sure it scared a lot of people off. You could get Lava Man or you could get a horse that will never run again.

I would almost guarantee that you will see that horse in for 50 next out, unless something is wrong, and what races are carded...

I also like trying to figure out what the plan is for the new connections, if he was even claimed, I haven't been able to look yet.....

Baffert hates to put up with paying workman's comp. So, he wants to get rid of anything that can't win stakes races. He dropped horses like this at Del Mar 3 or 4 years ago. They were o.k., he just didn't want to mess with them. He is above this.

They lost 400k on that horse(500k + training costs/ - about 85k earnings n' 25k received for claim.) Just shows ya how much money some people have to piss away. Hard to believe taxes on the rich are too high when these people can afford to throw money away (like it's a hamburger wrapper.)
