Think about who the sire of the horse is.

no doubt there are some very serious offers for creative cause. but sheik mo won't be calling. and i agree with hossy as to why.
hopefully blind luck bounces back after that complete non-effort. but i have to wonder if they plan on the bc all things considered.

Why would they not buy a horse sired from Giants Causeway?

Because they hate Joey from NY.

That, and they are bitter rivals with the people who stand Giants Causeway.

I never thought she was going to run at Del Mar so I didn't think she missed a start there. When they brought her back so early in the winter, I didn't ike it because I felt there was no way she ran throughout the year. She was going to have to take a break and it was going to come in the summer. With her having won at Delaware before and a big money race there she wasnt missing that. With Hollendorfer not wanting to face the boys, his talk about possibly going in the Pacific Classic was just talk. I thought it was the perfect time to take a break. Today was unusual. Perhaps you guys are right and the writing was on the wall but I just think it was a bad day.

Only about 10 months too late with that decision.
