Re: It's The Rush That Keeps You Going

Katie smiled. "Well, actually, before we could anothe rperson in the stand who had previously worked with them, and had a good stud ruined, called in and I am sure they are out of business now. We were given one of their breeding studs, amazing blood lines and he made Game Dog." Katrie nodded to the offer for the two year olds.

Ian-

"Okay, well I will lead you to the training barn where there stabled." I said leaving the desk and opening the door waiting for them smiling a little-

[Harley]

Katie stood up, following him. Jay smiled at him. "Again, I am sorry for her behaviour." She whispered in his ear, blushing. "Adopted, you know. She can get a bit, b#tchy, mind my french, sometimes."

[Man O' War Lover]

"Oh it's fine." I said walking down the stairs and out of the stallion barn, the training area had three shed rows and a main barn with a small office near by where Ronny kept his pappers. Sammy the head groom was walking from the main training barn and waved to us. The training area was more loud with whinnes and clamour of grooms and exsersize riders as they talked. Ronny had two assistent trainers to help him "We have over 100 horses in training 30 of them are at mulitpule tracks." I said "Some farms have even more but this year was a little slim Mr. Archer sold 25 of the two-year-olds at the begining of this season." I said walking toured the main training barn. "There are five for sale." I said-

[Harley]

Kate smiled, speeding up a bit. "Are they in a group, or sperated throughout the barn?" Jay asked.

[Man O' War Lover]

"In a grop." I said stopping near the middle of the barn isle, the four two year olds where in there stalls. "There all for sale"-

Katie looked at Black Star the longest. "Filly is nice." Jay said, stroking her nose. "So is this one." Katie added, petting Black Stae.

[Man O' War Lover]

(Sorry Black Star is a colt but he can be a filly instead/

Ian- I smiled "She's by our best sire 'Magic Man'. Her dam was actully a white Throughbred from Erupt, there rare but the dam was very nice of pedagre and had a good and long carer." I said "Black Star is one of the best behaved fillys you will ever meet." I said smiling-

[Harley]

(Sorry, I made that confusing. Jay said that the only filly was nice, but Katie was looking at Black STar the whole time and said he was nice to.)


Katie looked at him. "Bloodlines won't matter for awhile now. " She said. "But I suppose you want them racing their whole lives. And the only one who can do that now is Jay."

[Man O' War Lover]

"Actully they will probably be racing for only a few years." I said looking at the colt "I can lead him out if you want to meet him?" I asked opening the stall door and going inside "Or you can say high in here, he does not bite." I said smiling at the colt-

[Harley]

Katie slipped inside, letting the colt et used to her. "If I could choose any it would be him/"

[Man O' War Lover]

Ian smiled at her "He can be yourse but the price might chase you away." He said carfully the stud fees had probably done enough but the colt was only $40,000. "Some of the others are around $80,000, he's just older but he is $40,000 and he is one of the better ones very nice distance runner he was trained early beacuse he was more progressed than the others Ronny even got him in the gate last month." Ian paused "Mr. Archer once sold a yearling for 1.2 million some of the yearlings go for 5 million or even more the highest at Kindlen was 9.1 million sired by Northern Dancer I beleve." Turning back to the colt he said "If you would like to learn more about him I can tell you he needs blinckers you know the masks with the eye cups." Ian had actully ridden the colt, he had been there to help break him- before the accadent "I rode his sister a big mare and a come from beahind horse named Eagles." Ian smiled at the colt patting his neck-

(I think the recored was broken last year by ten million actully I can't remember if it was last year though)

[Harley]

"Aye..." Katie said, hopes falling. "I'm sure dad would buy him for you Kai, after all, he wants you to race to." Jay said already dialiing the number. "Is he one of the cheaper ones?" Katie asked, gently stroking the horse.

[Man O' War Lover]

"He is $40,000 that's half of what he's really worth." I said frowing, his blood line's where some of the best you could fin and his sire was a race legened. "That's a very good price." I noded looking at her-

[Harley]

"Why is he so cheap if he has such good blood running through his veins? One question though, why do blood lines , matter so much? Can't any horse race and be as good as any of the fancy smshancy ponies?"

[Man O' War Lover]

"Well paper's just help us keep track of his family lines, it took centres to breed the Thorughbred and it also help's us now who is in his family. Also The Jockey Club does not allow unpapered Thorughbred's. We need to know if a member of his lines has dense bone or carries dasiese and it can be apssed down and it's better what we do know. Some poeple like papered horses beacuse some horses breed for the best confermation which is inportant and need's to be documented." I said looking at him "Some qaulity is better than other's, some farm's sale their best stalk, a breeding farm is not just a buissness but also it need's the money and latley the market has been rather cheap." I pause to think "The most we sold this month was $80,000." Looking at Black Star I said "But he is a very nice colt and is worth the money, some of the cheapest ever sold beacome the best we ever see." I smile a bit. "So do you want to purchase this colt?" I needed to contact Mr. Archer he may be back soon, "You can ask his owner Mr. Archer some more question's when he get's back if that suit's you instead?" I offered-



(sorry it took me soooo long )

[Harley]

The young girl looked at him. "A papered horse can be jumpy, aggressive, and many other bad things. A horse with unknown and mixed blood lines could be loyal, calm, gets along well with other horses. Isn't just how you treat them?"
Jay sighed. "I have the money, but you have to pay me back , Katie. By lettimg me ride him in the big race and if I win the money, he is yours." Katie blushed. "Alright. I have a thousand in my bank account.....-" "No, that goes to college."


Jay gentle took the money out of her pocket. It was in hundreds and fifties. "I can pay you the other half later, because this is all I have right now."

[Man O' War Lover]

I look at them rubbing the back of my neck "How about a check?" Yeah Mr. Archer took checks for these horses when it came to stallions or stud it was in cash I didn't really see why he liked the difference but then he was a business man.

[Harley]

"Sure." Jay said, quickly writing it out. "He'll be perfect for riding. And soon, aracer."

[Man O' War Lover]

I look at her "Well do you board your horses at another stable or have your own place to train?" I asked out of curiosity, taking the check from her I was holding the bill journal I carried along with all the extra paper work that I kept in case of problems I slip the check inside and planed on dropping off the paper work in Mr. Archer's office along with the check.
