Congratulations hpkingjr!

Postby LB » Tue Apr 07, 2009 8:21 am

A 2YO Oflee Wild colt bred by hpkingjr brought $300,000, the 5th highest price, last night at the first day of the Keeneland April 2YO sale. The colt was bought by Buzz Chace--who was overheard to say that he'd loved him as a yearling and wished he'd bought him then--for West Point Thoroughbreds.

Way to go! And here's hoping that he does his family proud on the racetrack. :)

And Buzz's connections should give that horse a great chance to succeed. Congratulations!

Thanks for the very nice compliments one and all.

A Loose Kisser is booked to Discreet Cat at Darley for 2009. Hopefully the future bodes well for her.

Fortunately others have felt differently as Heavenville, Oflee Wild's first runner ever, won his first race by 4 and 1/2 lengths at Keeneland yesterday.

Offlee Wild agrees and said he wouldn't breed your mother-in-law unless he could borrow the teaser's equipment for the cover.
