today GP r2

#5 Saffie claimed Road to Peace in a $20k turf mdn in Dec, he ran 4nd in that race, he was then moved up to $50 mdn on dirt and ran 2nd.

Today he's in $12500 mdn.

Why the drop, could he have gone so wrong in a month ? Surely the horse will be claimed  ( he won) . Why risk losing a horse that was competitive in a 50k maiden in a 12500 maiden race

Owner only has a couple,had to drop to win,gelding,needed a stall for something better.......off you go.
My guess
He was a $125K yearling sale....That hurts.

He was a $125k yearling but not for this group. They have made a quick profit in a short time . Get the guaranteed win and move on. This trainer claimed Math Wizard for $16k so he obviously doesn’t think too much of this one. Time will tell if it was a good decision.
