you are right he should have called and paid for all the other colts that had abilty to come an additional 25k beyond the 25k Monmouth GIVES any triple crown runner and also asked that Quality Road to heal faster so we could get him in too..Then he could have called Aidan o'brien up and offered to ship in a few from his barn and or matched the 1.25 purse if anyone beat his filly.. How much does purse money really mean to Ed Evan, Tabor, Live Oak, Shiek Mo, Phipps, Jess, Zayat..It's basically the carrot for trainers.. Hi I am Paul Reddam I am here for my check please..Your funny Bob and i care about purses because it matters.. Hi Charlotte here is your 87k for coming in 2nd...put it with the others on the table please.. Enough of this purse nonsense..
Nobody ran because they were running for second.. Rachel is currently the fastest 3 year old at 9'fs PERIOD..
