I realize that your options are somewhat limited, but I still don't know if it would be a good idea to lose him for $32,000 right now. I would imagine the reason Gary wants to run at FL is because he doesn't want to let the horse go for $32,000 at this point. If you want to run him for $32,000 eventually, you might as well get some more money out of him in easy spots at FL first.
i know ... but i also want to see log jam pay his way moving forward since i'm operating on such a small scale and breaking even is the only business option i've got.... so i question who will find value in him if we can't even place him? not to mention i don't even have full control since this is a partnership with a partner with a LOT of horses. they can afford the losses but for me it's cold cash.
