If the actually scratched all presales it would be quite an empty sale.

This outright fraud.
"Brocklebank was also the underbidder on the filly."

Bockelbank bought the filly for $29,000 a day before. Any ideas why this guy was bidding on his own filly during the sale ?

There should be jail time for this guy. They can't just let this go.

This thread needs constant exposure. Another outstanding article by Ray Paulick.

thanks DTS, i have better things to do than masquerade around under another nic, although it is halloween ...

here are some questions
1) were this pinhooker and Chase in cahoots to defraud an unsuspecting owner ?
2) was there collusion in the FT office to get this filly in this sale after she was sold the day before ?

there's enough evidence here that the KY attny general needs to start a criminal investigation about this event.
