I wouldn't be so quick to doubt the buyer's purchase price
and/ or the fact this horse doesn't warrant the price, based upon the
connection to the consignor.
"Out", is this Tom Van Meter and/or another of this family who
consigned hip 512?
If so, as an FYI, Tom Van Meter was a the major link to
Zayat in the purchase of American Pharaoah and several other
major stakes winners for Mr. Z.
