[Nestor Makhno]

Never mind Frank ...appreciate what you do !
Congrats William !!

[William Atteberry]

Well I certainly didn't feel lucky, but thanks Frank. I don't think this is a tough decision, but we will see what advice gets thrown on the wall. After 1 year in game I won over $3M, have $1.7M of that still in cash and the only stakes horse was a loaner that was a first race pop. So the prospect of having a really good horse is awful tempting.

The phone lines are open.

[Kelly Haggerty]

The money is smarter, after all how many horses really sell for $200k? Smarter or no, I would take the horse, because if it turns out to be great you will have months of kicking yourself.

[Trent Mcevoy]

I agree with Kelly wholeheartedly. For me personally I'd take the prospect of getting a good female horse into my barn over cash. What would you be looking to do with your cash for instance - use it to breed in the prospect of breeding a good horse then here you have one right now and for free. I have retained over 80% of what I have earned this year and I'd use some of that to purchase a filly like this in a heartbeat.

Her dam's progeny have earned over $725 K on the track and she has the chance to earn plenty being a stakes filly herself. In looking at Composer as a broodmare sire in the Stud Book he sits as number 3 in the ranked stallions list for turf sprinters so when she does retire hopefully after a successful career you have a great broodmare sired filly to start your own family with.

One further thing if she is a stakes I would be insuring this filly the day she walked into my barn.

Good luck, I hope you keep her and congratulations on winning her mate.

[William Atteberry]

Unfortunately the yearling stakes late bloomer, readjusted to an allowance peak. Still the right move and it may yet have benefits.
