He's a gelding, so I doubt that anyone would ever give that much. I think that's just 'track talk'. (Kadabra sold for $800,000, and he's a stallion)

Someone I know that is close to the deal said the number was $300,000 for Riccolo. Nice coin for an IL bred gelding. I'm happy for Butch, he's a great guy! thumbsup

I think the buyers will eventually do well on their investment, but it will be a slow grind. Very soft fractions and stopped - something wasn't right with the horse IMO.

Oh no. Driving a water truck is a much tougher task. You have horses and people running into you all the time. At least with a truck and trailer, all you have to do is stay somewhat awake.
