All I can say is, the more money some people have the greedier they get. The owners of California Chrome must be millionaires already, now they get megalomaniac. Why not run him on the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe? He would need some turf training but it's a 5 million Euro race.

you can never have enough money as an owner, you grab all you can get. ask MC Hammer if he had enough, the guy has been out of the game for decades and he owned great horses.

Hammer was spending money like it was going out of style. 30 or 40 people on the payroll, over spending for cars ,houses and horses. I remember sone of the huge bets he made on lite lite when she ran against meadow star. He was a prime example of a guy giving back to the hood and it helped in bankrupting him.

A very wealthy individual here once was the owner of a two car NASCAR team. He was asked if it was possible to become a millionaire investing in NASCAR racing. His answer was "Yes. If you start out as a multi-millionaire"..
Perhaps not on the same monetary scale, but I would imagine the same applies to those buying into higher priced race horses.

That's the oldest line in horse racing. Heard it a million times.
