A twitter page I follow suggests that an announcment is coming. Anybody know who's getting this one?

Being that some think he's the best 2yo right now, I think the answer may be pretty simple, but I suppose it could be a surprise

Godolphin already made a run at this one and the deal fell through, so it isn't them. Probably someone accepting a controlling interest rather than the outright purchase.

Gotta think IEAH, just think how quick he will be be with Tricky's supplements.

I see DRF has the report up now that the colt is going to Zito for LaPenta.

Well, I thought Stanley Gold was doing a great job with him.....5 straight.

Jackson Bend being saved for the KY Derby.

The way things are with these superstars, I won't get my hopes up...so many fall off the TC trail with problems of some sort by March or April.

From DRF on why he chose La Penta:

"I didn't want to go it alone and I also didn't want him going to the Breeders' Cup, or to race in California or Dubai."
