I've been kind out of it lately

So, I just got around to reading this. Nice piece. You can’t blame them – and like was stated everyone has their price. Looking at Lucky was a real potential star though, so it does suck.

As an owner, it’d be tough to not sell if someone is going to offer you ridiculous money for your horse, no matter how good he is. I’d love to think I would resist the urge to sell but if you’re in the business to make money it’s tough not to cave in. Still doesn’’t help to make up for his loss in 2011.
