When these foolish owners get offered tons of money for a horse and turn it down, they lose 99 out of 100 times. I cant tell you how many times I know of owners paying 25k for a horse at auction. Then when the horse runs big a time or two they get offers of 200-250k and turn it down. I know that sounds made up and unrealistic but it happens all the time.
