Good for Sanan.

He's trying to buy and sell horses. Not a thing wrong with that.

On the other hand, Warren apparently felt compelled to disclose Sanan's offer. For what reason, other than to mention his own ego?

On the first part.....Sanan offered a product worth, at best, half of what the other product was worth.....and his attempted prey didn't bite. To me, that was the most interesting part. Can't blame him for trying. I actually like Sanan. He likes to send it in.

On the second part of your post.....I guess one can twist things any way they like but in my opinion the guy related a very interesting story. I stopped taking Psych courses after 101 so I'm not qualified to delve into his psyche. I'll leave that to you Dr. Bruce.

Meh. It's not like these two have a snowballs chance in hell of wearing roses.

Why make it public at all then? Who else goes out of their way to make public an offer made privately that was declined?

And, of course, thanks for the kind salutation. I appreciate it a lot.

If I recall, Mrs Valando made public that an offer was tendered (about $17m) on NoBiz last year. Was Mrs Valando just bringing her ego into play by mentioning the bid?
The story here is interesting. That the two colts who could (with some luck) face each other next week have a link is cool. It is also interesting that Sanan is now in the position of possibly keeping Williamson out of the Derby.

No doubt. People reveal that they turned down offers for horses all the time ( sometimes even truthfully ) and this story has an even more interesting twist.

It's Derby time.....bring on the fun tales. Only makes it better. And, this particular Derby can use all the help it can get.
