Anyone know of this horse or can they

[Buffymommy]

I asked because I wanted to know. As I am a fan of racing, was interested. The 13 year old girl getting him was interested too. Her parents had him vet checked. I don't know the outcome of that vet check yet.

Sorry I asked if Phystech was so offended by me asking.

Thanks for the info Echo Farm.

Not offended, just being realistic. I should have known a 13 yr old girl was involved in this..... been down that road too many times. "Gee Mister, I know you want $1500 for your horse but will you take $87 - it's all I have from my allowance and I just LOVE your horsie. Oh look, his knee is swollen - I don't want him "

Note to self "put Phystech on the Morty list".

To be honest, the 13 year old hasn't seen the horse live yet. Trainer found it, looked at it, rode it, parents looked at it and they are buying it. 13 year old was just interested in knowing his background.

You need a drink.

Not all 13 year old kids are like that... I wasn't when I got my first horse.

the pp's was a suggestion for looking for gaps in the racing history to indicate possible injuries, not so much for a record...fun to know at any rate.

I'm late to the party here, but Danzig is right about the pp's being able to tell you basic info. My horse made 2 starts at 2, in the second he DNF...then he disappeared for 2 years before he started again....so we knew he had gone wrong somewhere...when I vetted him we ultrasounded his front legs and found an old suspensory tear...along with problems in virtually every other joint in his legs....but for a thousand bucks plus 500 for the radiographs and ultrasound who cares?

The horse actually came with all of his papers. Racing records and all. He is the biggest sweetheart. I was just really curious as to his racing background. The 13 year old was too. But yes Danzig is correct. Knowing he layoffs, etc... is a helpful thing.

We did find out that he was gelded at 3 and a half years old. Didn't place in any races as a four year old.

He does like the fillies though. He whinnies at each and every mare they walk by him. Hee hee. They put him in a paddock with the girl's other horse, Freddy. Freddy will turn him gay in a heartbeat.

Glad the horse has a new owner that loves him! Go Bubba!

I'll try to post the picture tomorrow. I must be attachment-impaired right now. (i only had 2 bbers, Officer, I SWEAR!!) Apparently, my file is too big. I'm almost half insulted.....like maybe what "they" really mean is that my @$$ is too big!!!

Hahaha,
Later,
