Poor boy, I wish him luck. He seemed pretty determined that there was a job to be done and he was gonna do it from the moment he was being pulled up to when he thought he should bust out and give it another go. Thank goodness it didn't break the skin so that it cuts back on infection (and not gonna lie I would've probably gotten queasy if it had been flopping around on tv). I know it's kind of selfish but after I think about him being ok I start missing the fact that I don't get to see him run anymore. Such a gutsy little guy. So was Jamie waiting to make a deal in any capacity for breeding rights? Just so crazy that she didn't at least have something going. It's not like he's Secretariat for pete's sake. There's a likely limit for whatcha get.

he was entered for sale. i think they may have been shopping him, but maybe asked too much....
if he makes it, no doubt he'll get a deal somewhere.
