I'm not saying this necessarily has to do with anything that happened, but the horse, Autobeacat, earned more than $400k in his prime including a few $100k stakes races if I recall. He was with Heitzmann and company the entire time. So, I think it's fair to say it wasn't necessarily an everyday $5k claimer to them.
