If they have no pedigree and are crooked, the numbers are still limited, even if they can fly. A few years ago, the Ward-trained homebred One Hot Wish broke the world record for 4.5F at Keeneland in her career debut (48.87 seconds on Polytrack). She had a left knee that her consignor described as "a little freaky" and was sired by Bring the Heat. They entered her as a "late addition" to Keeneland's 2YO sale after her debut, and she RNA'd at $300K.
