If I was the owner, she couldn't have gotten to that sale fast enough, hell, I probably would have sat outside with her and said "SILENT BID for your WORLD RECORD HOLDER"

I bet she could be had privately for about $500k. And, it'd only be that high becasue the sheiks are behind you.

Based on the performances from Wesley Ward's horses in Florida, and their confusingly low odds race after race, I wouldn't take ANY horse from him.

The over/under on career races for this particular horse feels like 3 1/2.

I saw the same BTW. Ward didnt do much in Florida and all of a sudden he is popping 2 year olds right and left in KY and Cali. Most of these are homebreds or at least he owns part of the horse. Something isnt sitting right with me on this.

It's not a colt, so I can't see big, famous money having testosterone-feuled ego battles over ownership.

What is the reserve on a filly of that breeding, with only the "possibility" of a graded-stakes resume before she hits the shed?

Be interesting to watch and see if she meets the reserve.
