He bought her privately for $700,000 off a huge allowance win. He brought her back in a grade II and she won it. Then she ran 2 more times and bowed a tendon and she was done. I figured he'd be lucky to make a small profit on her after she bowed. I had no idea that he could get $2.5 million for her.

yeah,
same here.
I really did like her as a racehorse, but I remember back at the end of 2004 that really good racehorses like Elloluv and Dublino sold for less(both sold for less than 2 from what I remember).
maybe it was the dam side that brought Andujar's price up.
seeme like Reddam has done everything right lately.
