What IEAh does is try and find proven candidates and then pay a premium due to the fact that you won't buy so many 6 figure disasters searching for a good one.

Look Mr. Know It All, get your facts right. Showing Up was bought by Tagg as a 2yr old at a Maryland sale, not a yearling. Nice Nelly is a filly and they run a breeding operation so you can figure out why they bought one of the last Seattle Slew fillies. Nice Nelly thankfully is doing well too. I think IEAH is excellent too, but KD is not Showing Up. Showing Up has earned close to $1M in 5 starts, won a grade II on dirt, and finished 6th in the Kentucky Derby. All that and he destroyed KD. KD will not get the distance this weekend and off his last race he will bounce.
