Sounds like DT has taken a big step. Just wondering how many and who is involved in this. Is there a list of participants on the board?

She has some grit to her also as her first race at the Mountain and came back and should have broke her maiden that day. Absolute great buy and looking forward to seeing her run, especially if I GET THE INFO

Just watched all of her races as well, the only race in which she was not in a position to win the race at the stretch was her first. That day she had 13pp and thats probably not her style and the track was sloppy. Looks to be that she has great potential. In the race at Turfway looked to me that the jock moved her late, she had the lead and she could have made it interesting if the jock wouldnt have been so late to push her. Im very happy with this selection

Can't wait to tell my co-workers that "Me and some of my gambling friends from the internet just bought a racehorse for 24K" .... their reactions should be priceless

You get Mena on this horse and she wins for fun at Turfway, FOR RUN, gate to wire, start to finish....Hopefully Battaglia calls the correct name though

Scav,

Did you see that race where Battaglia called Derby Vow in the lead and 4th the whole way?? Wow....he must just get to a point where he doesn't even listen to what he's saying.

Hope he calls the name right, but hope he doesnt pick her in his selections. That would not be good for DT

yeah, he probably just got back from a night of partying at SIU. I never remembered names when I was there....

1) Opening odds of Sumwonlovesyou when she first runs, 15/1 ML and she will open at 3/5

2) I can only imagine the insanity if BATTAGLIA were to call SWLU's name wrong or if she was winning and he called another horse. He would have to go into witness protection.

I like the guy, but there's no telling how he'd pronounce Saluki.

GO DAWGS!!!!!!

Pretty damn cool.

Finally something other than a quarter horse turned show jumper.

Somebody from here had to do it, you can make adjustments to those all the time if you want

[quote=Scav]Playa, how can't you be sure, this horse will make 25k in one race on the lawn. She stays healthy, and she will get up to 100k easy......[/QUOTE


i cant be completely sure scav , LOL you never can in this game as everybody here knows. i dont know the physical condition of the horse hopefully shes sound and doesnt have any issues. they had her realistically spotted first out in KY and did nothing, although to her credit obviously it was the gals first out and she had a horrid post. they drop her in half and it takes 3 times for her to win and its at mountaineer. why they went to mountaineer worries me some as you can run on alot more meds than you can at other tracks. again i just really dont agree with the price, if you wait till keeneland or churchill you can get some nice horses outta a 25n/2l if youre lookin for a young lightly raced horse. as of right now i would not put this filly in that type of race@either of those tracks. you coulda had a filly here at hawthorne this year for 16 straight 3yo's that popped a 80+ beyer. you asked for my honest opinion and i gave it i hope i didnt upset you or any1else!


she does have conditions left and with her pedigree some upside which is obviously very good! she should get you guys in the circle atleast a couple times this year and run through her conditions, i hope she wins every time out i will be pulling for all of you's so hard and steve and charles simon did a wonderful thing setting this up for you guys!

[disappearingdan_akaplaya]

1 more note on the horse she was scheduled to run feb 8th@tp but didnt due to it being cancelled

can u say eurobounce???? He's back!!!!!

i never meant to piss in anyone's cornflakes here. i am just calling it like it see it here. I know that Mr. Simon will undoubtedly move to horse up, but im just thinking you could have gotten her for cheaper if someone would have done the research. Too many people do the research at these types of sales and you end up paying a premium price for a horse. I hope she wins a million dollars for the syndicate, but you must be able to at least see my point...

WE GET IT.

We are not morons, we can read pp's, we can watch replays. Obviously Chuck and Steve see the upside and we chose to put a little bit of money towards this horses potential. She vetted okay and that's a huge step. We trust Chuck and Steve and are looking for some fun for a tiny amount of money. Nobody is going broke here.

Everyone is excited and looking at the positives. Your first post is enough to give you dibs on the "I told you so". Enough already.

FH,

You're not wrong. She could have likely been acquired for a little less.. But recognize that the objectives of our project here is a little different than that of a "profit driven" racing stable. We wanted a healthy horse with potential upside so that the people involved can get to see it race and feel the excitement of ownership. The last thing Chuck wanted to see happen was that we claim a 5yo gelding that gets hurt a week later and no one gets to see anything as it gets turned out for 8 months.

The beauty of Sumwonlovesyou is myriad:

1.) As a sales ring buy, we were able to vet her and confirm soundness.

2.) As a solidly pedigreed filly by a $1,000,000-earning Gr. I winner with a $25,000 stud fee out of a $500,000-earning, multiple stakes winning mare, should she be injured, she has residual value to recoup the purchase price as a broodmare prospect. It's a safety net for the group to move on to another runner.

3.) Considering that her dam was a successful turf router and Sumwon has yet to do either, there is upside that she will move up once she gets to the lawn. (If you watch her races, she looks to me to have turf action.)

4.) She is a lightly raced 3yo that got to the races at 2 and being by Came Home should improve with maturity.

There are a few other positives associated with her that I won't elaborate on here, but I personally have a very positive vibe from our roulette peg landing on this gal. I think she's going to be lucky for everybody...

From an outside glance, I can understand why people would be perplexed at the excitement over her, but as you spend more time here, you'll get why she feels like Personal Ensign to Derby Trailers...

She has run mid 50 Beyers her last two.
