Anyone want to claim a horse tomorrow?
 
Gulfstream 4th tomorrow there is a $250,000 claiming race. One of the horses is entered for only $200,000.

Yea me too, and i don't care about vets either

WillSmith 02-27-2007 06:45 PM

didnt take d'tour win this same condition a year or two ago?

POINTGIVEN1985 02-27-2007 06:47 PM

i wouldnt claim any horse in this race, not for those prices...
i think you'd have to be very fortunate to make 100,000 with any of these.

Hickory Hill Hoff 02-27-2007 07:51 PM

5k @ Aqueduct or 250k @ Gulfstream...
the choice is yours........

POINTGIVEN1985 02-27-2007 07:56 PM

call me crazy, but im sure you can find ALOT better value in the fifth at the big a

bongster420 02-27-2007 07:59 PM

haha..value??? just kidding. obviously, the purpose of the 250K tag is for those horses that are out of conditions but trainers don't want to lose....

Kasept 02-27-2007 08:04 PM

There's a VERY enticing horse available after that NX4 tomorrow...

Zaf 02-27-2007 08:06 PM

Too bad we missed our chance, coulda had Touched By Madness for 200K less at the Fall 2006 Belmont meet. :p

bongster420 02-27-2007 08:08 PM

Steve, might you mean the "inside and outside" in race 6???

Kasept 02-27-2007 08:13 PM

JD,

No.. the 6th is a straight ALW.. (And an impossible one at that.)

Don't want to say much.. Tomorrow afterwards. There's a horse I wish we had another $50,000 for for Dee Tee...

bongster420 02-27-2007 08:16 PM

Steve, I got ya. I thought you meant something interesting in a race after the N4X on the card...

I'm still trying to figure out what the hell NX4 means.

bongster420 02-27-2007 08:21 PM

STS N4X means non-winners of 4 races lifetime other than maiden, claiming, starter, etc...

Linny 02-27-2007 08:51 PM

Hey Steve, there is an interesting filly in at AQU on Thursday.

JJP 02-27-2007 09:23 PM

Has a horse EVER been claimed for over $100K? Why even bother writing the race w/claiming conditions? Nobody is going to think about claiming at that price. Just make it a classified allowance or overnight handicap.

The Bid 02-27-2007 09:27 PM

There was one entered at CHD last meet I would have claimed for 100 but they scratched, and rightly so.

Yeah, if I recall correctly, Sadler claimed a horse at Del Mar last year for 125k, opening weekend. TVG guys were talking about how all the rich people want a horse for the Del Mar meeting and people come there with cash to piss away
