I'm thinking she may not reach what they got for Hystericalady , who was by Distorted Humor . But BL did beat Grace so who knows.

by pollard's vision, she hasn't done anything too spectacular like beat males or anything (not saying being the champion 3YO isn't spectacular but you get what i am saying, she isn't Rachel or Z), and she cost 10k as a yearling, from a pretty avg female family, and she isn't the best looking horse in the world.

I'd say between 1 and 1.5 million.

That could be and hopefully the Sheiks will have interest in her.

No way she goes that low. I would guess her reserve is around $3 million.

She doesn't have pedigree and breeders want pedigree in a broodie prospect. Very few mares outbreed their own pedigree, no matter how well they ran. She's small and plain and I'd say $1m tops.

They don't want to keep her so why put a terribly high reserve on her. Right now she's still a very valuable asset. Why allow her to lose value? Sell at the top, right?

She was a wonderful mare with her 6 Grade I's I believe, but pedigree-wise, not the height of fashion, so I would temper the bid at <$5 million. I guess they are offering her as an either/or race or breeding prospect?

Blind Luck

in effect, these owners have placed this superstar in a claimer, looking to
cash out with no assurance Blind Luck is sound and no way of predicting
she can be a broodmare prospect.



21 starts, 12 wins 7 places 2 shows for total earnings of 3,279,520.


Why not retire her for all the $$$ she placed in your #@$% pockets and let her enjoy the the rest of her life, possibly as YOUR broodmare


hopefully what comes around goes around
