Thanks
Discreet Cat was a Godolphin purchase. 2 big bills was cheap for them. They've done it before. Street Cry, A Mabee horse I forget, theres been others.
That Matron with India out was very close to a real nice race for me. Not sure what will happen from here in. Tend to think a real good one doesn't toss it in like that.
Not sure Pompeii was an in the black filly if she cost a million. She died carrying her first foal per this story. She had a pretty bloodline.
