Hip 595 - this is the best deal on paper I've seen in a long time - depending on what they actually want for this guy. Anybody out there who knows what the problem is? By Bernardini no less.

Oh, and watch Protectionist's win in the Mel Cup. out of the clouds to demolish the field. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTAyi3W2ty0

I was curious about that also. I had been keeping track of him because he has the same dam's sire as my colt. I was very surprised he went for so little.

I think a few things worked against him. Protectionist showed his brilliance at long distances which goes against most US buyers who want speed speed speed. He has a pedigree pretty much unknown in the states. We also don't know how he looked...being a March foal he may have been a little immature.

I dunno. He couldn't have been that bad, going so early in the sale.
