Disagree mikey....if IHA could have raced in the Belmont he would have. We get cynical because we see so many people go for the big payday whether it is in horse racing or another sport & it ticks us off as fans because the only loyalty in sport anymore is to the almighty dollar.

Rarely do we see a Joe Mauer stay with a hometown small city team like the Twins or Cal Ripkin with the Orioles or John Stockton with the Jazz. Loyalty is not a two way street & I don't blame people for taking the money when they get the chance.

We knew IHA was going to have another big payday; it was just a matter of who would be writing the check,..

Nope Mids they did not want to take any chances of the horse being hurt. Its all about the breeding rights. But is a shame and I doubt Doug had a say. Jeez its not like Redman buys million dollars babys. He got lucky.
