The over/under on career races for this particular horse feels like 3 1/2.

UNDER!

I believe she will be sold first even though she will be listed as HIP 227. It will be interesting to see who goes for the highest: HIP 86, HIP 112, HIP 113, HIP 124 or HIP 227. I kinda think it will be HIP 124 but wouldnt put alot on it.

Sale begins at 1330 on Tuesday.

There's at least one major stakes winner every year to come out of these 4.5 furlong races at KEE.....perhaps it will be her....as she's certainly going to be the most impressive winner anyway.

I figured about 5-10X that, even with a nothing pedigree.
Shows how much I know about auctions!

Instead of hitting the gavel on the sale someone should have loudly flushed a toilet.

Assuming she is sound you'd figure whoever bought her will point to that 2 year old Stake at Churchill Derby week.

It only took Half Ours a year and a half to recover That same year a filly was 2nd...I don't think I've ever seen her entered in a race since. Pro Pink was 2nd last year and she has at least made it to the races a few times. Maybe this year a filly will win?

probably a dangerous assumption at this point...
I think you mean the three chimney's juvenille? Or was it re-named?

So what is the deal with the trainer here? Is he the type that throws out win early types that run huge and then disappear or do his horses just run huge for him and then fizzle out if they go to someone else? If it is the former then couldn't that be a good purchase if you kept the horse with the same trainer? She'd have to be one of the favorites for the G3 on May 3rd which would make her valuable as a broodmare.

The horse is a mess physically. She's extremely crooked. That's why she didn't go for more money.

I think it was renamed last year when they moved it from the Derby undercard to the Thursday prior, but that is the one.

The only horse I can remember in the last several years to run in one of the 4.5F races at KEE then actually turn out to be something as an elder was Limehouse.

1 in about 1000 is not a very good track record. Good luck to them...

I think they actually canceled the Three Chimney Juvenile and moved the G3 Kentucky Breeders' Cup Stakes to its place on the calendar.

The ill fated Gallant Secret was 2nd in 2004 (she was pulled up in the Deleware Oaks). The filly, Five Star Holding, was the one who was 2nd behind Half Ours.
