Tabor flew in because he is attending the July 2 year olds in training sale at Keeneland.

There is no July two year old in training sale and the yearling sale doesnt start for quite a while. I would guess he flew in because he felt like watching two of his two year olds who were favored in stakes races. I'm sure Quay gave him a hell of a lot of satisifaction. Tabor owned and raced the sire and the dam and this was a "free horse" that he bred. He did him proud.

Tabor is attending the Fasig Tipton--Thanks for all those who caught my error. But I am sure he flew in to see the race, but more importantly, to go to the sales this weekend.

Thunder Gulch has two offspring in the sales.

Hip numbers 462 and 471.

someone correct me if I'm wrong but he (tabor) doesn't usually buy much-- if anything--@ that sale...waits for saratoga and keeneland.
Many of those yearlings go to pinhookers.

I think you are correct. But whatever the reason, he is in Lexington. I can only assume it is for the sales and a litte horse race watching that he took in over the weekend.

Probably right. Guys like Tabor and the Sheikhs rarely fly in just for a race like that. Maybe he just flew in because he wanted to watch the race because he could.
