Runs 2 races at Hollywood Park two years ago for maidens $66k and $32K respectively....hasn't been seen since. Shows up in Boise, Idaho to run in a $2K maiden special event today.
Thoughts??

Bowed Tendon in all probability.
Usually these types are sold for one dollar/given to good homes and after a year + people get the itch to try and run them.
Just a guess but probably pretty accurate.

Jake, my guess is that the gate sat directly on the 5/8s pole instead of several strides behind it, thus providing no run up. Either way a sub 22 2nd quarter is smoken.

Still middle half in under 22 is great. Might make Emerald downs in no time.
On another note, if a horse is sold for whatever to a good home due to injuries, there is usually a no racing clause in a contract they must sign or they will lose the horse

You are right. That clause can be put in if the seller/giver wants it. Just depends on the situation.

You can't bet Sandy Downs, or the Jerome County Fair either. This is a half notch up from those.
