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.
I quit. 😅

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.

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.

I wanted him. But alas, I would never go as far up as you did ^^''
Congratulations, Gigi! Hope he will be a amazing racer in the future :)

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.

I am extremely sad to hear that, Brian. I'm with Laura; hoping he jumps up big after a race.

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.
