til the luck runs out.
and yes, some mares being sold are to dissolve a partnership, point ashley is also in there-she's in foal to distorted humor, madcap is in foal to ap indy.

others for sale as broodmare/race prospects, but not part of that dispersal are backseat rhythm, intangaroo, lear's princess, unbridled belle and pure clan.

which is why i can't believe that Vallenzeri was a buyback for that kind of money a few weeks ago. i think tho that paulsen only did that for PR, and to try to draw a partner.
