10 YO First time starter.....

[Maryland Owner]

Laurel Park - 7/31 - race 3- Blue Meadow is a 10 YO first time starter for Maiden Claiming 8000-7000 (bottom at LRL). Late bloomer ? I thought I had seen it all.... guess not :eek:

He's gotta going for him.

First Time Lasix and First Time Gelding angle too. ;)

[Bruiser1]

Saw an 8 year old maiden gelding, who hadn't run in like 5 years, get claimed the other night at Mountaineer.

Strange things happen.....

Twice as old as Alumni Hall when he debuted at Keeneland. I was there that day; 17-1 if memory serves.

[Steve 'StatMan']

Those 10 year old bones should be ossified by now!

[elhelmete]

He threw a bullet work at Rockingham Park in 2002, gotta respect.

[Tom]

He's so fast......they couldn't catch him until he was 9.

[JohnGalt1]

It's about time for him to start earning money to pay for ten years of chow.

I wish I could remember the horse but I saw a similar horse like this in the last month of Beulah. Approximate details were a 7yo 1ster, 300,000 sale price, in a 5000MdClmer. I remember the horse winning easily, and wonder where he went from there. Any way to query this?

[EMD4ME]

I don't know how to find that but I find that amazing... they couldn't start the horse in a Beulah mdspwt at least :D . Why go straight to mdcl 5000?

Was it Buckeye Cruiser..he was a 6yo firster, but only cost $85,000. Won by 11+ lengths in 2500 claimer..hasn't run since. Lifetime earnings $1612.

The horse broke last and ran dead last the whole way. It looks like the trainer has not entered a horse since 2000. There was $168 bet on the horse to win. Those are 168 reasons why we need some form of exchange wagering.

Hmmm, thats close but I honestly remember being it a decent 6 figure Keeneland sale which made it stand out to me. Maybe I'm remembering wrong and it is that horse though so good job looking! The timeline i think fits because it was either the last 1 or 2 months of Beulah.
