There is always the chance too that someone else would have stepped in and paid a lot for him as well, look at Spring at Last for instance. You never know what could happen in the ring.

yeah,
I mistyped.

he is 3.
good catch.

according to the article i read, both halves wanted the horse, but didn't want to remain in partnership. the losing partner was the immediate under-bidder on the horse.

shouldn't he change the name to neenerneener,he'sallminenow? mmm, nah, too many letters.

I just dont understand the price, I really dont. The horse would have to stand for 20K at least to justify that price. I mean, isn't that just a "tad" optimistic?

but since half the price was going back to the guy who bought him, didn't they really buy him for 3 million?
