LDH, I had the same thought.
Then it occurred to me that BECAUSE the meet is over, Thompson's Kill Lot will be filling up with Delta horses in the next few weeks. The fall meet doesn't start until October 17. For certain owners, if you've got an unproductive horse it's better to get three or four hundred dollars from Jacob Thompson (a convicted felon who spent a little jail time here in East Texas for livestock theft) now, than to provide hay and oats for the next seven months.
