$950,000 Johannesburg 2007 purchase; claimed for 8K
I guess this kind of stuff happens all over, but this spread is one of the more dramatic I've noted.
Benjamin Z was purchased for $950,000 in March of 2007. As best I can tell, the 2nd highest price of that Barrett's sale. Racing at the Pleasanton Fair yesterday as a 4 year old, he was claimed racing with an $8,000 tag. He did win the race, picking up a check for $4500. He went off at .50. DerbyCat and I talked about it as we looked at the race. I guess the bigger story might have been if he had not been claimed.
