One is envious of the way this group just seems to sniff out all the bargains and never seems to overpay.

You're not suggesting that a half a million is too much to pay for a half to a superstar like Andromeda's Hero....are you?

No idea. Was $900K too much to pay for the half to Midnite Lute that ran so well the other day for Pletcher? Or was $100k too much to pay for the Speightstown by Repole that beat one horse at DEL on Tuesday?

And just think how much Nicanor and Lentenor would've brought had they been offered for sale?

I'm just saying I look at the amount of money these guys pay for horses, and the results, and just wonder.

Who are you betting in a match race between a RHT/Violette firster vs a Giants Causeway/Baffert firster?
