Lexington buckets
Quote from Bearcookie56 on October 1, 2025, 8:04 PMI bought into one of those $700 Lexington buckets, have any of you purchased one of those? Is the object to get a pretty good stakes horse ,or is it acquiring many of medium talent?

I didn't buy into any of the buckets but for what it's worth at the end of day three Anthony has spent over $651K US and there are no two horses that together can fit into one of those $700 CAD ($501 US) buckets.

good luck. Ā Ed can share his experiences best, but I believe if you bought into any bucket then you can do some negotiating after the dust settles to get the one you want. Ā As with most things with AMac, it is a fluid process.
I really hope you get that stakes winner!

Quote from Bearcookie56 on October 2, 2025, 1:54 PMThank you @bgtolex25 , I donāt care if it is a stakes winner, I just want to follow a horse we can keep for longer than three months! In the five years Iāve been with The Stable ,Iāve only seen one win, that was Chimebelle ,which we promptly got rid of.. how about letting a horse mature and watch it progress, thatās why I got into this sale, hopefully we get an Ontario elegible!

Whoa!Ā Or, did I misunderstand... did you mean that you have only seen one win in person, or that you have only won one race in that time?Ā I'm assuming it's the former (which would be one more win than I have seen in person, out of 48 wins we have had since starting in May 2024.Ā Yes, I'm still an in-person maiden (and in distress too!)).

Quote from Purple Aura on October 2, 2025, 3:08 PMThe Prada Or Nada filly. Something like that. KY is a tough place to race, her breeding is good, not great compared to others. But of all the sale videos I've watched hers for whatever reason is fantastic to me. Something about it. Can't put a finger on it. Her sale price was only 25k. There's KY fillies who went for twenty times that. I need a KY bred. Hopefully it's her if she sells out I'm not over paying. I'm sure it will piss me off lol. I'm hoping Bear won't like her. š
