Regarding the sale of Rushaway winner Brass Hat, which fell through, DRF's Marty McGee wrote that the veterinarian came up to Brass Hat's trainer William Huff, after the Rushaway, and said, "I thought those people bought the horse." He said his vet told him, the horse had a few little things wrong with it, but nothing that would keep anybody from following through if they really wanted him. What was wrong with the horse? War Emblem sold for $900,000 with ankle chips to Thoroughbred Corp after being turned down by other prospective purchasers including trainer Elliot Walden. Obviously, it's a judgment call. When you identify racing prospects, do you use bloodstock agents or do you strictly use numbers?
