I heard this am one sold for 700k was wondering who sold it to the Amish. Wonder what the stable got for him

I do have to say that is one good looking animal

The dichotomy of Amish (or more specifically, roadster) versus race horse value is mind-blowing to me.

He is a handsome animal. I know next to nothing about the actual roadster competition circuit but next time I have a tall, dark trotting colt with some action, probably have to think long and hard about gelding him due to this secondary market.

i do not believe the stable ever owned him
trained him for the owner who i then think made some arrangements with the amish to get him ready for the sale

Here genius, instead of warring with ploppers here, not here, and doing nothing but repeating the same p3 comment, stir the oatmeal in your brain for facts...that's now multiple times you were corrected in this forum recently for racing related discussion outside of opinion where you have no clue of reality and the truth!

Agreed.  All US races were under The Stable ownership.

Looks like utter nonsense! Who would show up to watch this?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHpKQGMs8qs

To answer your question, WHO GOES TO THESE EVENTS?

The same people who go to dog shows.

i never said that agent black was not managed or trained by the stable .ca
i said he was never OWNED by the stable.ca
in other words the 1% owners never had shares
my understanding was that a person in Australia owned all of him and he has other shares of horses with the stable.ca so he sent agent black over here
i do not really understand how the Amish buy horses or how they value them but whoever ended up owning this one did pretty well for what appeared to be a very average trotter both race wise and pedigree wise

I'm not sure if this helps the conversation on ownership but the owner in the program was listed as Thestable Trosa. I must say it is unusual for an Thestable horse to not incorporate the horses name in the ownership.

It is my understanding as well he was owned by one individual (or at minimum, a VERY small group).

I think there are a fair amount of horses with pretty limited ownership that fall under "the stable" ownership umbrella.
