a question about a comment

Post by David Faulkner »

How important is this comment for the running quality of those who have it?

I would insure 'Shot in the Sights' if you can afford it. You wouldn't want to lose this one!

It just means it is most likely an Allowance and above kind of a runner. It's up to you if you want to insure.

Hi Sara, so it's a judgment call, he's an allowance LB, it means he could rise to stakes, but it's an uncertain probability

It is a judgment call, I'd say : )

David, I would not change your insurance standards based on that comment right now. Just about every single allowance horse in the game has that comment. Most of them won't be a huge loss if they get injured. Insure the horses you believe are special and can afford to insure, but don't spend extra money insuring things just because the trainer tells you to insure... the trainer assumes every owner is very rich :lol:

Insure = Allowance or above
Don't Insure = Productive or below. I have yet to see a productive or below get the insure comment unless they improve to Allowance or better down the road.

It also doesn't seem to take breeding comment into account so keep that in mind!
