I think there is a lot of people in this board with great insights, so I would appreciate if somebody can give me an opinion about a horse that I am planning to claim tomorrow...(here in Brazil)...it's more difficult to compare, since you i think you don't follow brazilian racing...but anyway...

His name is Bringback My Bunny. He is by Boatman and Jay Bella (by Negroni)

I've talked to my trainer and the horse is sound...no visible problem. I'll watch him at the paddock tomoroow, too.

I think he is better between a mile and 10f...but he is running at 10f to 12f more frequently. He is better on the turf i think...but he can handle the dirt sometimes.

Here is the link for his past performances (last 4 races and last victory). He is entered in race 8 (he is #4)

And here is the link for his last start on the dirt and his last start on the turf:

Dirt - 12f: http://www.jockeysp.com.br/resultado...=JC08314012008

See race number 6 (he is #2 and got 4th place)

Turf - 9f: http://www.jockeysp.com.br/resultado...=JC04614102007

See race number 10 (he is #5 and got 4th place)

Of course there are better races...not only those 2 i've posted...he is a 4yo horse and has 1 win, 4 seconds (including one listed race), 3 thirds, 4 fourths and 5 times unplaced, in 17 starts...he weights 500 kg.

Thank you!

I have absolutely no insight and nothing to go on but emotion. That said, do it!

My philosophy is if there's something you want in life? Go get it and that way there are no regrets.

Whatever you decide, good luck to you.

Thanks a lot, my miss!

Actually I am thinking if I wait for an auction with horses in training that will take place on february 14th or if I make a claim earlier...

But thank you for your advice...for sure I will see him at the paddock and wait for him to see me!
