The price isnt as impressive since much of the purchase price goes back into their own pockets though Fasig did really well.

Why would someone spend 5.7 million on a racing prospect and send it to John Terranova, Betsy

You're right, but I was hoping because I don't like Dutrow. OH well - I think he'll do a good job with SB.

I'm curious, with Moreno already owning 70% of Better than Honour, and her going to 14 million, does he have to pay the whole 14 million, and then get a check back for 9.8 million or does he only have to pay 4.2 million for the other 30%?

Dutrow makes it possible to buy mediocrity and still be successful, not that Stardom Bound is mediocre. However, he has moved up a lot of junk that IEAH paid a premium for. I do not think there is another trainer in the country that can tie one together or move one up like Dutrow

Terranova's horses always look very nice, and from all accounts hes a good caretaker and a nice guy. That being said hes not the guy you send a 5.7 million dollar horse to, at least not when you have Dutrow sitting shotgun.

Moreno, being that he already owned 70% of BTH, let it be well known that he was going to be very aggressive and had every intention of bringing this mare home. I don't know what kind of deal you can get on a mare like this but I would assume it would be very competitive. They had enough fire power in this sale. I don't know if they could have went elsewhere.

I'm still waiting for the inquiry from the Acorn to be overturned ( it was the most preposterous of non-DQs ever ) so that I can cash my $250 win bet on her at 6-1.

Robert Waxman could have used the $14 million I'm guessing.
