Yeah....Researcher wasn't impressive at all the other night. Time for a career change. These new owners should take the 600k and purchase a clue. Bunch of idiots.

Well, it's a steeplechase outfit, and the horse is, what, six now? I can understand why they'd be looking to try him over fences at some point. He is a gelding, after all, and if you ever go to the races anywhere in the states of VA or MD these days, it seems that half the fields are owned by Kinross.

Personally, I think it's a great move.

Researchers pedigree is loaded with stamina.

The sire, Two Smart, is by the great stamina influence Two Punch.

The dam, Wild Magnolia, is out of the great stamina sire Apalachee.

Her dam is by Red Ryder, a full brother to Mr. Prospector. Red Ryder was best known for siring pretty cheap speed types before he was exported.

Makes total sense.
