Smarty had two fillies in the Fasig-Tipton Lexington Sale. They were both very nice looking. The first went for $150K the second went for $65K. The first I thought was worth a little more, the second I thought went a little high. I bid on the Second fillie, hip 33 but dropped out at 50K. She was the horse I saw on my previous trip to Lexington, when we did a private vet on the Tiznow colt. I bid 5K over my limit for her because I liked her nasty disposition!! She was the alpha of the pack!

Yes I did here about it, and then watched a replay of it on TVG. I went to Lexington for the Fasig-tipton sale, did some bidding but didn't buy anything. One colt that I was top bidder on, did not meet the reserve. The SJ mare that I was looking at went for $65K whick was about 20K higher than our formula thought that she should sell for. I will be heading to Saratoga for the Aug sale and then Sept is Keeneland. I am trying to buy a Tiznow colt privately before the Saratoga sale.

Did you hear,Smarty Jones had his first winner here in the USA. His name is Keefer,he won a 5 Furlong race at Monmouth in impressive style. He's out of a Seattle Slew mare. The 1st of many to come.

Stewart Elliott what a gentlemen, if feel so bad for Smarty and Elliott, damn haters who don't want to run their race...

LOL. Now that's exactly why I cherish this race. I lost my voice at the time and could watch it all day. If Smarty had held on there would have been relentless nonsense that he was the equal of Slew.
Meanwhile, he collapsed over the final quarter, in cow's time of well over 27 seconds. No excuse on a fast track and after an opening half of 48 3/5.
He's remembered now and in the short term, but down the road he'll be blanketed in obscurity, well earned.
And it was a great call by Durkin.

Jerry Bailey is a scum bag.....Couldn't stand someone in his generation winning the triple crown that wasn't him...

Stewart Elliot sent Smarty to the lead early because Smarty wasn't relaxing, since he had horses on either side of him.
