Very simple.
Haves and have nots -- soft market, less buyers, but compounded by or irrelevant due to the unrealistic expectations of sellers. Eric |

I believe Stardom Bound went for $5.7 million - not sure, but IMO I'm sure she went to Godolphin. Who else could afford that # in this day and age?
That stinks - she'll be shipped to Dubai, pointed for the Dubai Oaks, miss the the KY Oaks and run all of about 4 or 5 times (if that) next year. I have no doubt that the Sheikh treats his horses wonderfully, but IMO, we are not going to see this filly's full potential come out. This has been a lousy day all around - even Da Bears looked like garbage. |

Just found out it was IEAH that got SB. On another board, people are very upset about this. I despise Dutrow, but maybe IEAH will send her to John Terranova who has Laragah? I doubt it, though. Also, it's the UAE Oaks, not Dubai Oaks, that I was referring to. |

Why?? It's not like the Pepper's Pride connections had a chance. Who else was in the running here? |

LOL True. Everyone seems to hate IEAH. I despise Dutrow, but even though one of the owners (Iavarone) lives in my hometown (in fact, I think he lives across the stree from me), I haven't exactly followed them. You'd know more than I would as to why IEAH inspires such strong feelings in people...... |
