Thanks for that Euro, you better let Todd and the owners know pronto because he says that they are shooting for the BC and a possible championship, LOL!! Noone turns down a lottery ticket like that. Shes a grade one winner and worth a locked in 2.5 mill easily no matter what she does now(thats the incredible bottom going rate for a grade one winning filly on the dirt, can you believe this bloodstock market?). They can double or triple her value if she wins the BCC and teh championshop and pick up another mill or more in purse money if she wins the race. Oh, by the way, she has to be shipped to Kentucky for the sale, thats where CD happens to be. If you are gonna ship for a November sale an hour away from where they run a zillion dollar race where you are gonna be one of the faves in, you usually consider the premise, lol. Shes not a colt Euro, her value can't go any lower, its locked in.

She certainly has improved since Pletcher took her. Not that she was chopped liver before that, but her improvement is crazy good. That race the other day at Saratoga was a total joke. I saw harness races later on in the evening more entertaining than that.

I know the value is locked in, but she is worth nothing if she injures herself and is put down. If it is locked in, then why even take the chance. That is my point. I don't care what Pletcher says or does. We all know you cant believe a trainer in this game. I still think it is 60-40 she doesnt race. And she will go for more than $2.5.

Euro you are being stubborn and obviously don't understand the bloodstock side of the game. Shes insured Euro, geez. If she goes down they still get the cash. Other than that they only have UPSIDE! Colts and horses can diminish in stud value with bad efforts, mares don't. Shoot once theyw in a grade one the first thing you do is call the bloodstock insurance agent and raise the value of the insurance.
Umm, you seeing the point?

You know, I think you two prob have convinced me. She is really starting to round into great form. She sure is a sharp filly.

Now that she has gotten over her 2nditis, she is going to keep winning.

I have to agree with that 100%. Once a horse of her talent learns to win, it seems like they go on a huge streak. She sure did look good in her last race. I think that she will get a real nice pace to run at in the Distaff too. The race fits perfectly for her.

I know all of this. I own horses which you dont so I know about the insurance. I am not going to debate you on this as you cant tell me something that I already dont know. I just have a feeling she wont being going in the Distaff. That is all, plain and simple.

OOOHHHH, I see. Well I purchased a grade one winner as agent, you haven't, and since one of the owners explained to me about what she was appraised at after her grade one win for insurance purposes, I kinda know how it works.

Does anyone know anything about Happy Ticket? I havent seen her since the race at Churchill?

Oracle, you dont pay the bills. I dont care what you bought. Being an agent and actually having the financial reponsibility of paying the bills is two different things. Why dont you own any part of a horse?

Im thinking about buying into a partnership for a 5k claimer. Thus , that shows Im more in tune to the ins and outs of ownership than Ora. He had an explaination for all of your reasons for not running and you still wouldnt admit your error.

if she injures herself and gets put down, no sale...not enough reason not to run, that's what insurance is for! certainly that line of thinking didn't keep ashado out of the sale.
