Oh, and being a agent of one graded horse doesnt make you the authority on everything that is equine. See Oracle, people like you take from the game and never put anything back into it. That is what we mid-west people call a leach.

Thats pretty funny. You think shes only insured for that amount? Dream on. Owners of horses like that tend to insure at the highest possible appraisal that they can get. Lans educated me a little bit about this, having owned two grade one winners himself. I found it fascinating.
Just remember when she runs in the Cup I'm gonna pull this thread and jam it in your face.
As far as not putting anything back into the game, you obviosusly don't know a thing about the game, and your ignorance shows with each passing post.
Most people who sell a horse are thrilled to sell it. Thats why they are doing it. Most people who buy one, especially privately, define a goal but lack the time or resources to attempt it themselves. Its why they outsource to people who they trust to do it. I'd think that Sandy Robbins would say I've put a tremendous amount back into his game with that purchase. Shes appraised at ten times what they paid for her and shes already won that back and given them the thrill of winning at the highest level.
