Re: TBS What did you get?
I spent 2 million on one of the only dirt milers in the auction and got a claimer.
So very select, indeed.

Got an expensive and exquisitely bred Stakes Peak colt. https://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.ph ... ID=1594708
That teaches me to abandon my usual "bid on fillies only" tactic and go for a potential TCT horse.

Re: TBS What did you get?
Got the one I really wanted, although it was hard for me to drop big money on the risk of a dirt router colt.
It's a freak.

Re: TBS What did you get?
Looks like everything else is freak/stakes lol.
My stewy auction luck has been generally abysmal outside of Pete the Cat, but this takes the cake.

Congratulations, Gigi! Hope he will be a amazing racer in the future

Re: TBS What did you get?
I spent $1.1 million on a Stakes Peak colt, but the first gallop gave me a piece of equipment, so that's nice...

Ugh. Sorry to hear that. I'm going to hope that he's the type that improves to stakes/freak with a start under his belt. I'm surprised he galloped that.Brian Leavitt wrote: ↑1 year ago I spent 2 million on one of the only dirt milers in the auction and got a claimer.

I am extremely sad to hear that, Brian. I'm with Laura; hoping he jumps up big after a race.Laura Ferguson wrote: ↑1 year agoUgh. Sorry to hear that.

Re: TBS What did you get?
I said to Brian on the side, but I will put it in here too: he was in the select sale because his dam has been a monster broodmare. But I did not go around artificially inflating my horses after the gallop level change, ie they might have been a freak when they were born, but I didn't bump them up to freak after the change because I don't think that's right. So obviously he still would have been low but he wouldn't have been "claimer" designation.
Only RRH should ever have felt that pain... just kidding, sorry RRH. Now you and Brian can form a club.
