nether at live auctions. People are there strictly to "bid up" friends' horses.

$150,000 seemed about right- $130,000 for Americagreatahgai n seemed WAY TOO MUCH. He'll win back easily $50,000 due to the classes he fits, but then what? Who knows??? But it did seem a very high price taking form a trainer who is one of the best. Curious who gets the horse next?

How long will it take to name the 50k back and at what track??  They go fast everywhere, even in the bottom classes!!  And you will have monthly expenses to pay also which delays getting your purchase price back.

i personally think that Provost doesn't care. He has horses at lots of tracks with a variety of trainers . i don't think they all are making money.

A bigger question is: On Ongate you see a person listed as the winning bidder. Then you see different owner(s) listed when the horse races. Who knows who will own this horse? it could be a partnership, a group, or him. Time will tell.

  • Calhoun: Thx I'm leaning to the 5 there.  Those CD/GP full field races look the best on the page. 1/2 length from being a G3 winner.
