They got my thoughts bang on
I’ve seen RacingGirlUK on a few other forums and this is the only time I came close to replying but The Cheekster beat me to it. I guess it’s a word or warning to everyone not to tell tall tales Look at some of the amounts Nick Shutts has paid for exposed moderate animals and sent them to Kate Waldron. Making rich people stupid is God’s way of sharing the wealth.
Karen Waldron’s success with horses seems inversely proportionate to how much they cost to bring into the yard. The likes of Rash Moment, Young Lorcan and Milton Des Bieffes have all recouped their costs and then some, whilst the likes of Mondial Jack, Chef Tartare and Wyle Post – a 60,000+gns purchase that couldn’t even win a match for his Members race at Upper Sapey’s point-to-point meeting – have to filed in the box marked "financial disaster".

not to mention Foly Pleasant – purchase price £100,000+, win and place prize money accrued £4, 858.93. Good call, Nick.
Yes, but is he happy?

At Doncaster the clear impression had been the current connections were going to purchase Augustine back. I know Lucinda Russell signed the docket however don’t be surprised if he continues to race for the previous owner.
With regards to Nick Shutts purchases, if you gave his installed trainer, Mrs Karen Waldron, what level of performances would Kauto Star have achieved?…….They have made several big money purchases for horses with inflated marks and perhaps Kauto Star maybe witnessed at Newton Abbott’s 6.35 on Tuesday without a tongue strap.
What would one pay for Merry Storm?

very good!!!!As for Locksmith – I missed that one!! WTF??
Has Wylie lost his mind?? I’d have to think twice about spending £4k on the hairy goat – let’s face it, that’s about the maximum you’d recoup trying to sell the scrawny beast on as a riding horse – and that’s without factoring the costs incurred by reschooling the yoke and assuming he deigns to submit to reschooling!…..and I bet you’d have to have a fair few battles along the way, resulting in a nice stripy pattern emerging on said yoke!
