Running in? Or going to win? Lots of horses start at msw, but finally have to drop down to maiden claiming. Totally depends on how she does. I know of a horse with idiot connections who had slow works, bad breeding, and still started in state bred maiden special company. He ran dead last by a lot. What did they do? Throw him in an open special weight after that last place effort they started dropping him. He's still trying to get his first win at the maiden 5 level. Also, 4 and still in special weight? She get a late start or has she been close a few times? How's she bred?

She just ran her first race a few weeks ago against a field of mostly other first timers. Came in 4th. Sire is Storm Passage, Dam is Smarty Pants. I'm just curious what kind of price might go with a horse like that.

What's her name? I'll put her on my watch and look out for her. Totally depends on what she does while running, though. Good 4th? Or beaten 20 lengths 4th? Uf she has a good trainer, he wouldnt put her sw unless he thought she could win. Did she have issues that delayed her start until halfway through her 4 yr old year?

I'd think unless she's crazy over classed shed be worth at least $25,000 or he'd be running her for a tag.

Usually the more conditions they go through, unless they are going to be stakes horses, the less they ate worth.
