He must have serious issues?

Must have something seriously wrong.

Why was he in book two though?

I once saw an Unbridled - Life's Magic sell for 5k at a yearling sale as well, so I guess this shouldn't be too surprising.

He's in book one, just session 2 of the select portion of the sale.

Maybe he'll avenge the shame of selling for 5K and win the BC Turf in a few years.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

I noticed an EQ that RNA'd for 0 too a short time later.

There's an Idaho bred 2-year-old in Northern Cal named Our Minesweeper who is 3-for-3 with a pair of stakes wins.

The wins coming going 4fs on synthetic ... 6f on dirt ... and one mile on synthetic.

Since 2006, the current trainer is just 31 for 454 (6%) with a $1.23 ROI in route races.

Might be a nice cheapie to buy up and give to Dutrow or Wolfson ....

The sire is an unraced son of Giant's Causeway named Cause Ur Mine.

If the horse made Book 1, he must not be a total mess, conformation-wise. Of course, he could have bad radiographs or not have scoped well, but that's pretty pathetic.
