yeah, that's too bad.

or maybe not actually. he sure gets expensive yearlings considering how AWFUL the mares sent to him are. i'd say at least 95% of the mares sent to him are either unraced or won no more than once.

You simply judge a mare by her race record. For the record, that's your opinion. Others judge a mare on numerous other factors such as appearance, pedigree, demeanor.

if she's from the right family, race record doesn't mean squat for sure.

not that it really matters as the filly was way out of the DT price range but she was a lovely individual...the first foal out if a kris s mare who is a half sister to multiple stakes winners and stakes producers....the fact that the mare herself only earned 10K is pretty much irrelevant, esp. in book 4.
