Not a private purchase. . . They have a lot of horses w/ Brown - not sure if they have any more w/ KMc.

MCK had over 100 horses, and was making room for more of the shieks flesh. West didn't sever ties, this was MCK's decision.

Nice run by the other Musket man and good ole Brass Hat always gives his all. The 2 went, but the 3 had nothing anyway. Quite an early move by Pick 6 in there.

Pick Six is the definition of a hanger. I'm done with that rat.

You could argue that Musketier probably should have gone favored in there (or close to it) yet gets sent off at 7-1... which again shows the value of >=12 horse fields.

Same here. The big move on the backstretch came 1/2 mile too early.
